The
tax rate is affected by new houses/development built, overrides and capital debt exclusions
passed. Templeton has had a single tax rate for a very long time.
Many
of the years with lower tax rates were subsidized by Free Cash and stabilization money –
one time money to supplement ongoing operating costs. A truly BAD idea.
A number of the years in coincide with articles in the Gardner news, associated with a certain town coordinator that read: a balanced budget with layoffs and no tax increase. Good lines for elections but bad for the town as any savings was always spent. Almost looks like someone with financial expertise was trying to financially sink the town, in my opinion.
