The Tax Assessor's Office ensures an accurate valuation of all real property and equitable distribution of the real estate tax levy.

Property tax maps and assessment information may be found through the Township's Geoweb Map system.

The New Jersey League of Municipalities has developed a brochure entitled, "State Government and Your Local Property Taxes" which explores how decisions made in the State Capitol over the years impact your local property taxes. This brochure may be found at www.njslom.org/SG-Property_Taxes.html.
