Message from Town Administrator
Gary Ezovski
Events like our Memorial Day Parade happen because people care and are willing to work together. Words aren’t sufficient to express my thanks to the people who made our usual small-town parade the proud American event that it should be. The Northmen band played and marched at such a level I would think only possible from a college band. Our police and fire personnel were polished and respectful of their honor to carry and present our flags. The DPW crew that always keeps our town hall grounds looking great was on hand in timely fashion to set up the gear needed for the remembrance program and the refreshment area at the Village Haven. The Narodowy family allowed us, on short notice, to end the parade at their restaurant and Scott McGee and friends cooked and served the hot dogs that were donated by Performance Food Service. The scouts and others who marched and the fact that so many people were along the route made it a great celebration.
Finally, yet most importantly, our Grand Marshal and the leadership of our local Veterans of Foreign Wars Post who tirelessly and vigilantly encourage everyone to keep the memory alive for those who gave all. I hope the hands over hearts and the salutes of former military personnel, as our nation’s flag passed them by, was inspiring to our VFW members as they marched. May we all never, ever forget.

The Town of North Smithfield has hired Northeast Revaluation Group LLC to conduct a statistical update to bring all real estate in town to fair market value effective December 31,2018 for the July 2019 tax roll. The process is mandatory according to RIGL 44-5-11.6. The law requires these statistical updates every 3 years and a full revaluation every 9 years.
Throughout the project Northeast Revaluation’s staff will be in neighborhoods throughout the town. The company will attempt to physically visit, measure and inspect properties that sold over the last 2 years, which helps in the analysis of determining fair market value. They also will be visiting any properties that have unfinished construction or have taken out building permits recently. All employees are required to carry identification and have their vehicles on file with the assessor’s office and police department. The process will last over the next several months and be completed in the spring of 2019. If there are questions or concerns contact the Assessor, Sarah Frew, 401-767-2200 ext 323 or Northeast Revaluation Group directly at 401-737-0300. Thank you for your patience throughout the process.
