If an owner of a motor vehicle thinks that he/she
is entitled to an adjustment of his/her excise bill, it is strongly
recommended that he/she pay the bill in full, then contact the Board
of Assessors for an application for abatement. Although payment
of a bill is not a precondition for an abatement, an owner risksincurring
late fees and penalties if an abatement is not granted.
Applications for abatement must be received by the assessors by
December 31 of the year following the year of the tax. If the bill
is mailed after December 1 of the year following the tax year, application
must be made on or before the 30th day from the date of issue or
the date of mailing, whichever is later. Abatements can be handled
through the mail; however, the bill should be paid as assessed and
a refund will follow if the abatement is granted. You may also choose
