**Culture**:
The office culture at Plainfield Township's Assessor’s Office is focused on detailed property valuation for tax purposes, with a small team of 4-6 employees fostering a calm and independent work environment.

Throughout most of the year, the office primarily handles data entry, computerization, and administrative tasks related to property assessments. This quiet period allows employees to work independently with mínimal interruptions from phone calls or walk-in inquiries.

August marks the appeal season, when taxpayers request assessment reviews. During this time, the office becomes more active, providing thorough explanations and addressing taxpayer concerns promptly and professionally.

Overall, the office culture balances focused, independent work with heightened responsiveness during peak taxpayer engagement periods. The team’s commitment to accuracy and customer service is evident throughout the tax cycle's various phases.
