Reassessment set to begin in Scranton next week

A firm hired by Lackawanna County will begin reassessing properties in Scranton next week.

Representatives from Tyler Technologies will start on or around Thursday, Dec. 15, and on West Market Street in North Scranton.

Tyler staff will wear yellow vests with the company name and logo on it. They will also carry a Lackawanna County ID badge.

This summer, the company began revaluing 100,000 residential and commercial properties in the county.

The new tax rates will go into effect in January 2026 and will change who pays what portion of local taxes.

Properties in Lackawanna County were last reassessed in 1968.
