taxes that fund the activities of local government including the

tax collector does not determine how much to collect.
The voters at the Town Meeting set the budget for the town. Then the Board of Assessors determines the value of a parcel and
applies the tax rates and any special assessments to the tax bill.
The Tax Collector then has the responsiblity to collect the taxes based the tax bill. If you have questions about the value of
your property you should contact the Assessor's office at (508)
