The Woodbridge Board of Assessment Appeals will meet at Town Hall on Friday, September 5 at 6 pm and Saturday, September 6 at 9 am to hear taxpayer appeals relating to motor vehicle assessments on the Grand List of October 1, 2024. This schedule is subject to change based on appeal applications received.
To schedule an appeal appointment with the Board, it is requested that a completed Motor Vehicle Appeal Application be returned to the Assessor’s Office by Friday, August 22. Applications are now available on the Town website or in the Assessor’s Office at Town Hall.
New State legislation, that went into effect October 1, 2024, has changed how motor vehicles are assessed. The new valuation method uses MSRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) with a depreciation adjustment based on the MSRP Depreciation Schedule below. With this change, appeals may be made on the basis that the motor vehicle assessment did not use the correct vehicle MSRP. Factors such as high mileage, body condition, salvage vehicles, and rebuilt titles are not considered with this valuation method.
