Taxes, Rates & Fees
Town Council sets the mill rate during its annual budget deliberations. Residential property owners pay municipal property taxes based on 80% of the assessed value of their property. To determine you municipal property taxes, multiply 80% of the assessed value of your property by the mill rate. Please note that in addition to municipal property taxes, property owners will also pay school taxes.
Tax statements are sent to property owners in late June/early July, and taxes are due by December 31st of each year. A 5% discount on the municipal portion is available to residents who pay their taxes by August 31st.
