Perhaps if Mr. Heffernan and Mr. Cochran explained the arithmetic used to arrive at the tax rate changes in Addison County towns (Sept. 12, 2024, political advertisement) I would understand the increase shown for Salisbury. My 2023/2024 tax bill shows a homestead tax rate of 1.8524. My current tax bill (2024/2025) shows a homestead tax rate of 1.5108.

Doesn’t look like a 13.2 % increase to me.
