Subject: [Butler Island] new tax assessment info

I met with the listers today at the North Hero town office.  I was told that the projected new tax rate for non-residential will be about $1.45, give or take a penny or two.  The projected tax rate for residential will actually be a bit more, about $1.50.  The tax rate for 2005 was $2.38.  Although my assessment went up by 42%, my 2006 tax bill will be about $160 less than the 2005 bill.  The town of North Hero is sending all property owners a booklet listing all new property assessments- should be in your mailbox in the next few days.  

Thought I'd pass this info on to fellow islanders....would love to hear any info you have about the new assessment, too!
