The Fall River Board of Assessors convened on January 27, 2022, with Nancy Hino and Rich Gonzalez present, and Rich Wilson Zapson absent. The meeting commenced with the approval of minutes from the January 19, 2022, open and executive sessions, which passed by a 2-0 vote. Following a review of the invoice proof list, the Board voted 2-0 to enter an executive session to discuss payments, exemptions, and Appellate Tax Board (ATB) matters, citing potential detriment to the city's legal position if discussed publicly. Upon returning to open session, the Board made several decisions, all by unanimous 2-0 votes. They approved fiscal year 2022 statutory exemptions numbered 57 through 62, and fiscal year 2022 abatements numbered 8, 21, 30, 35, and 39. Conversely, they denied fiscal year 2022 abatements numbered 9, 20, and 38. Additionally, ATB case number 97 was approved. The Board also discussed the fiscal year 2023 budget, noting its presentation to the "artist" (likely auditors or the board itself) the following day. The next meeting was scheduled for February 1st at 10:30 AM, and the meeting adjourned at 12:39 PM.
