' rTA <br /> 'own of Mashpee/Mashpee Water District <br /> Classification hearing <br /> December 2002 <br /> Each year at this classification hearing, the Board of Selectmen and District Commissioners <br /> are asked to male four choices relating to the manner in which the Town is taxed. <br /> The four choices are as follows: <br /> i. Split Tax Rate: The Selectmen and District Commissioners may choose to tax <br /> commercial, industrial, and personal property (C.I.P.) at a rate up t ° greater than <br /> the unadjusted tax rate. The increase to C.I.P. properties results in a decrease t <br /> residential properties. In the case of Ma hpee for fiscal year 2003, a full ° increase <br /> to C.I.P. reduces the residential rate by about 5 ' %. On a $200,000 residential <br /> property this option would save the taxpayer $100 while it increases the takes on <br /> $200,000 CIP property by $950. <br /> 2. Small BusinessExemption: In order to buffer the impact of a spit tax rate on small <br /> businesses there is a provision that allows the Selectmen and Commissioners to offer <br /> a tax exemption properties housing businesses with 10 or fewer employees. <br /> Approximately half of the businesses in M shpee currently qualify for this exemption. <br /> The exemption is a moot point if the tax rate is not split. <br /> . Open Space Discount: The Selectmen and Commissioners may offer a discount of up <br /> to 75% to land identified by the Board of Assessors as Open Space. The Board of <br /> Assessors only classifies property as Open Space when it has legally enforceable deed <br /> restrictions. Open Space properties in ilashpee are currently assessed at a rate that <br /> reflects their marginal marketability making the open space discount unnecessary. <br /> . Residential Exemption.- The Board of Selectmen and Commissioners may elect t <br /> offer a tax exemption of up to 20 f the average residential property value to all . <br /> domiciles. The exemption is funded by an increased residential tax rate which results <br /> in lower takes for most owner occupied homes and higher taxes on vacant land, nn-- <br /> qualifying residential dwellings, and qualifying properties with a value greater than <br /> approximately. This year the break point where even full time residents would pay <br /> more in taxes on their home is $52.5,000. All vacant land would be subject to a higher <br /> tart. <br />
