The Town of Frye Island Grand List has an effective date of April 1; the Town Assessor will be able to use the following open season for the Island to finalize the entries in that Grand List. The April 1 Grand List is used to determine the taxes for the following year. For example, the April 1, 1999 Grand List is used to produce tax bills in November, 1999 with a tax due date of December 31, 1999. Any change in ownership that occurs after the April 1 date will be recorded on the Grand List the following year.

There is a well defined procedure to follow if a tax payer feels that the assessment for his/her property is incorrect. This procedure is defined a State of Maine Property Tax Abatement Bulletin. The application form to use to apply for a Property Tax Abatement is also online.

General Notes:

1. The Island has been divided into three tax areas: Map 60, Map 61 and Map 62. These three maps relate to the northern, central and southern portions of Frye Island respectively.
    
2. Most of the Island land that is owned by Frye Island Incorporated is taxed as bulk land. There is one lot in each Map area (i.e., lots #1, #224 and #1301) that indicates the assessed value of the bulk land. There are a few other lots that Frye Island Incorporated has acquired as individual lots, and the assessed value for those lots are shown on each individual lot.
