The Norwich Selectboard finalized the property tax rate on Tuesday. The total rate for homestead property will rise 3.25% compared to last year, from $2.3591 to $2.4358. For non residential property, the total rate goes from $2.2696 to $2.3589, about a 3.9% increase. Those numbers are from the Selectboard packet for the July 6, 2021 meeting<\/a>. See chart below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At that meeting, Selectboard Chair Roger Arnold “thanked the Listers, Town Manager, and school personnel for their work on the tax rate,” say the draft meeting minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By my calculation, the total tax bill for a $400,000 homestead property will be $9,743.20. That is an increase of about $307 from last year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a listserv post by Town Manager Herb Durfee, tax bills will be mailed “no later than July 13, 2021. The first tax installment thereafter is due no later than 6:00 pm on Friday, August 13, 2021.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further, the material in the Selectboard packet indicates that to cover just the Town budget, the town rate would need to increase by 9.02% from last year — to $0.5113 from $0.4690. The increase was dampened to 6.21%, mostly by a reduction in the amount raised by separate Town Articles and steady projected revenues. The school homestead rate rose by 2.42%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
