August 19, 2026 - 18:51

Angela M. Johnson has been selected to serve as Gloucester County's next Real Estate Assessor, a role she will officially step into following a formal appointment by the county board. Johnson arrives with over twenty years of hands-on experience in property appraisal and tax assessment, a background that local officials say made her the standout candidate in a competitive search.

Her career spans both residential and commercial valuation work, with a strong focus on equitable assessment practices and clear communication with property owners. In her new position, Johnson will oversee the county's property valuation database, manage appeals, and ensure that all assessments align with state regulations and current market trends.

County administrators have emphasized that Johnson's familiarity with the region's diverse housing stock and her track record of modernizing assessment procedures were key factors in the decision. She replaces the previous assessor, who retired after a lengthy tenure.

Johnson has stated that her immediate priorities include reviewing the current assessment cycle for accuracy and launching a public outreach effort to help residents understand how their property values are determined. She also plans to work closely with the board of equalization to streamline the appeals process.

Her appointment takes effect at the start of the next fiscal quarter, and she will be sworn in during a brief ceremony at the county administrative building.
