The Assessor’s Office is responsible for maintaining an accurate description of all Real, Personal and Motor Vehicle property in the town, determining and recording the assessed value of each property, and for calculating and annually reporting the Town's Grand List. The Grand List is a record of all taxable and tax-exempt property in the town. The Assessor must complete the Grand List each year and file it with the Town Clerk by January 31 and with the State of Connecticut by May 1. 

Our mission is to follow directives set by State Statutes including Town wide revaluations which are performed every five years. Our goal is to treat all residents with a friendly and courteous demeanor and to distribute the tax burden in a fair and equitable manner, for both the Town and its residents.

As a division of the Department of Finance, the Assessor’s Office maintains:

• Property records, street field cards and maps used to determine tax liability.
• Records for motor vehicles garaged in East Haven including vehicles with out of state registrations.
• Records of taxable personal property owned by businesses and other concerns.

The records of the Assessor's office are public information and are available during regular business hours, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
