BROOKFIELD TOWN BOARD - Assessor Appointment PENDING

The Town Board has withheld reappointment of the current Assessor, Rhonda Weigand amid criticism that the Assessor has not and does not intend to have regular hours at the Town Hall, although other, smaller Town Accounts do receive this attention from her. While several residents did support her, a number complained about lack of hours, failure to return phone calls or adequately explain procedure. Given the financial impact of real property taxes, we deserve an Assessor with regular hours. The assessor term is SIX years.... Watch for upcoming "Special Meeting"....technically, we have until JAN 2014 to appoint an assessor. Time for the Board to do some HOMEWORK!!!!
