Common Level of Appraisal & Coefficient of Dispersion:
How This Information is used by the State Department of Taxes
At the end of the year, the Board of Listers received the State 2023 Equalization Study results which analyzed the last three years of valid sales to calculate the 2023 CLA and COD. The town’s Common Level of Appraisal (CLA) is 69.0%, indicating Hartland property is assessed at 31.0% below fair market value. The town’s Coefficient of Dispersion (COD) is 26.30%, indicating that some taxpayers are paying far less than their fair share while others are paying far more than their fair share. The COD over 20% triggered the State order to conduct a reappraisal as soon as possible. The Listers are working to comply and in 2024 will be issuing a Request For Proposal (RFP) seeking a town wide reappraisal contractor. The challenge is many Vermont towns are under reappraisal orders and there are not enough reappraisal companies to do the work. Nearly every appraisal company is booked through 2027 and most are not accepting any new RFPS for the next year. Nonetheless, the Listers will continue the search. Until the next reappraisal is completed, the town will have to endure the impact of a low CLA and high COD. One can only hope that over the course of the coming year, the state will find a viable and equitable solution to this difficult situation many towns and property owners are facing.
