Yup. I notice because Meredith lakefront props. have increased in value 14%, the town feels it MUST raise taxes...WHY? The cost of running the town didn't go up 14%. So Meredith Town is going to extort more money based on owner's equity? Can't pay taxes with equity, so people will sell. It's happening to ANOTHER one of my neighbors right now. The kids can't afford the tax. They can afford the upkeep, but not the tax. So, is Meredith going to buy another high-rise firetruck for 750k? How about an austerity measure to save the homes of existing families?
Meredith...Justify this increase in taxes based on home values increasing! Let's jam town hall with phone calls inquiring why?. Be courteous... 603-677-4213. If you get a response, let us know.
