• The reassessment freeze: What it means for homeowners (tompkinsweekly.com) — Danby homeowners are directly affected by Tompkins County’s temporary reassessment freeze, which will keep most property values steady through 2028 while staff prepare for a full reset in 2029. A county appraiser now assigned to Danby and Newfield explains how assessments work, why accurate information from residents matters, and how to seek a review if you think your home’s value has dropped.
