  2. Go to Get Current Tax Information link
  3. On the Disclaimer page, click “Click Here”
  4. Enter your search criteria
  5. Click on the Search button
  6. Click the Tax Map ID# to link to property details
  7. Locate the "Total Assessment" and write it down
  8. Click on "Tax Info" to get the "Exemptions" to determine if they apply for school, town and county or village purposes and write it /them down
  9. Subtract exemption(s) from total assessment to get "taxable value"

Multiply your taxable assessment by the appropriate tax rate and divide by 1,000. This will give you your approximate taxes based on the most current taxable assessment and the most current tax rate. Tax rates are usually not set until a few weeks before the bill is mailed.
