The Smidge Impact.

As you can see the actual dollar impact is a ridiculous small amount, only .95 cents per lot, but in this case the percentage assessed is well over 70% and the effective or actual mill rate being paid because of this over assessment is 24.24, well above the established mill rate of 23.76. This type of calculation appears to be widespread across many properties in Coventry and has greater impact on lower value properties.

This really is not so much about the dollar value of the situation, but rather about ensuring the Town uses systems that have integrity and that there is accountability and transparency when these types of situations arise.
