Cranston, R.I.- As part of the State mandated full
revaluation process, Vision Appraisal representatives will be in the field
throughout the City of Cranston beginning June 10th.
“We are starting the process in a timely manner so that we can
comply with the State mandated revaluation process and to obtain the most
accurate information for taxpayers so they are assessed properly” said Mayor Fung
The staff from Vision Appraisal will be doing an interior
and exterior inspection of all properties. Because this is a full revaluation,
the process will continue throughout the next year and a half. Properties will
be inspected, reviewed and building permit work data will be collected as the
revaluation work commences on all properties in the City.
Vision staff will carry a photo ID, a letter of
identification from the Assessor’s Office, and will have their cars registered
with the Cranston Police Department.
“The safety of our residents is paramount as we have these
Vision Appraisal inspectors working throughout our city. If anyone has any
question or concerns about their identity, please do not hesitate to ask for ID
or to contact our police department for verification” said Mayor Fung
All properties will be re-assessed as of December 31, 2014.
Property owners will receive notice of their new assessments during March of
2015, and will have the right to meet with representatives of Vision Appraisal
in Cranston to review the proposed assessments at that time.
If there any questions please call the Cranston Tax
Assessor’s office at 401-780-3181.
