The Fall River Board of Assessors held a meeting on April 16, 2025, opening at 10:01 AM with a roll call confirming Nancy Hino, Rich Wilson, and Rich Gonzalez were present. The board unanimously approved the minutes from their March 19, 2025 meeting with a 3-0 vote. Following this, the invoice proof list and the monthly report were also approved by unanimous 3-0 votes. A significant portion of the meeting involved entering into executive session at 10:05 AM to discuss and approve abatements and exemptions, as well as review ATB matters, citing that public discussion would be detrimental to the city's legal position. The motion to enter executive session passed 3-0. The board reconvened into open session at 10:17 AM, where they proceeded to approve several fiscal 2025 statutory exemptions (numbers 94-108, 113, 115-118) with a 3-0 vote. They also voted 3-0 to deny other fiscal 2025 statutory exemptions (numbers 109, 110, 111, 112, and 114) and fiscal 2025 abatements (numbers 72 and 73). No other relevant business was brought forward. The board scheduled its next meeting for May 21, 2025, at 10:00 AM. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn, which passed 3-0, and the meeting officially adjourned at 10:20 AM.
