Bangor property inspections to start later than planned  


The first revaluation in 37 years of Bangor’s more than 11,000 properties has been pushed back by months.

The first step of Bangor’s Citywide Revaluation Project, to inspect every site in Bangor, including vacant land, single- and multi-family homes, industrial spaces and commercial properties, was supposed to begin in June or July, but is now slated to start in October.

The goal of a revaluation is to ensure property owners are being taxed fairly for what they own and the city’s tax burden is divided equitably. While some residents’ tax bills may go up after the revaluation, the process can also lead to a reduction in a community’s tax rate, said Debbie Laurie, Bangor city manager.
