Does that exclude outhouses?

Regarding Real Estate Taxes why can’t you follow Georgias rule for people over 65 .They seem to be getting by! Just thought i would ask ?

“Let them eat cake”

This has already started to happen.
I can remember when Hopkinton was a small town.
It’s grown into a snob town.

Or how about a residential exemption under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 59, Section 5C that Barnstable, Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Nantucket, Provincetown, Somerset, Somerville, Tisbury, Waltham and Watertown already enjoy.

A town can adopt a residential exemption (of up to 20% of the median home assessment in Town) by a simple vote of its Board of Selectmen, but when has anybody ever heard of Hopkinton looking into doing that to rein in taxes? Nope, they just vote their approval for digging the town into more mind boggling debt so that they’ll have to raise already onerous taxes to pay it off. Lexington is working on this kind of exemption, why isn’t Hopkinton?

Bathrooms makes total sense… how else could we be flushing our tax dollars 😂🚽
