Tax Assessors are governed by State law and regulated by the Ocean County Board of Taxation when it comes to the establishment of assessments. The State laws dictate that assessments be maintained at market value as indicated by neighborhood sales.
Assessors determine the full and fair value of each parcel of property in a municipality at such price as, in their judgment, it would sell for at a fair and bona fide sale by private contract on the first day of October following their assessments (NJSA 54:4-23). Among the additional duties of the Assessor’s Office are working with the courts to handle tax appeals, the inspection of all new construction for assessment purposes and the administration of all tax deductions such as senior citizen and veteran deductions.
With over 32,000 residential and commercial tax ratables with a value in excess of $4 billion spread out across 26.3 square miles in Brick Township, the Tax Assessor’s Office has an enormous responsibility, but one that it is handling quite successfully.
