Re-appraisal of the Town
The Worcester Listers have completed their re-appraisal of about ½ of the properties in our town. We inspect the property and enter the information into a computer assisted mass appraisal (CAMA) system. Many changes in property values have occurred since the previous reappraisal in 2006 & 7, and many properties have undergone substantial physical changes.
The system that seems to be working, is that we send a letter announcing the day we have scheduled to visit a property, that includes a phone number to call to schedule a specific time or re-schedule. We have met with many individuals over the past year, and would like to thank the people of Worcester for their kindness and assistance as we work toward the completion of this important project.

Worcester Town Complex Roof Structural Inspection
Scope of Services: Perform a structural analysis of the existing roof framing of the above referenced building. The purpose of the analysis is to determine if the existing roof structure has adequate capacity for the installation of solar panels., the owner shall provide ladders, lifts, access holes, and repair of access holes.
The Selectboard has estimated the review of the roof will require measurement and analysis of up to possibly three (3) individual truss shapes. Given the existence of multiple additions, it is possible that additional analysis may be required. Output will be a report summarizing the load capacity of the structure including the ability to support solar panels.
If analysis of the existing roof indicates that roof reinforcement is required either to support the additional solar panels or due to existing framing issues, a separate proposal may be asked for by the Selectboard for the design of reinforcement.
