The Grand Forks Assessing Department mission statement is to establish and maintain the City of Grand Forks' assessments by valuing uniformly all taxable property and administering programs, as required by law, in an accurate, equitable and fair manner, ensuring credibility and public trust.

The Assessing Department is responsible for identifying all real property within the City of Grand Forks and determining the corresponding value which is used for property tax purposes.  This includes appraisals of all new construction each year, as well as updating the value of existing properties when changes occur.  The Assessing Department is also charged with verifying various properties that qualify for tax exemptions and credits as specified in the North Dakota Century Code.
