Property Assessor's Responsibilities
The Chester County Assessor of Property is a Tennessee constitutionally elected official who serves at the pleasure of the Chester County citizens for a four-year term of office. It is the Assessor's responsibility to discover, list, classify, and value all property within the jurisdiction of Chester County for tax purposes. Property is divided into two classes, real and personal. Real property includes land and all buildings, structures, and improvements to the land. Personal property is machinery and equipment, fixtures, furniture, and other items that are movable in nature used by a business. The Assessor is required to maintain an up-to-date set of maps that display all of the parcels in the county, detailing their locations and physical characteristics. This office is responsible for the maintenance of 10,000 parcels of property each fiscal year.
