Overview: During the recent Wyckoff Town Council meeting, the council faced a challenge as they discussed a revaluation order from the Bergen County Board of Taxation, which mandates a revaluation for the 2027 tax year. The township had sought a postponement to 2028, citing a transition in tax assessors and necessary updates to tax maps for a new Geographic Information System (GIS). Unfortunately, the county’s response was unfavorable, and the signed order confirmed the 2027 revaluation. The estimated cost for this revaluation process is significant, averaging $100 per line item, culminating in an overall cost of approximately $800,000. This figure includes expenses for independent appraisals and updating tax maps, imposing a financial burden on taxpayers.
