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 Assessor's office received the State 2025 Equalization Study results which analyzed the last three years of valid sales to calculate the 2025 CLA and COD. The town’s Common Level of Appraisal (CLA) is 56%, indicating Hartland property is assessed at 44.0% below fair market value. The town’s Coefficient of Dispersion (COD) is 21.87%, 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 Assessors office issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) from a town wide reappraisal contractor which is scheduled for 2029. 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 the state will find a viable and equitable solution to this difficult situation many towns and property owners are facing.
