Fred Thys wrote a very elucidating article on how your property taxes are calculated. But perhaps you are wondering just how do they get spent? The League of Women Voters of the Plymouth Area has a video for you describing just that.
In March of 2024, the League asked both town and school officials to present a detailed program on how your tax dollars are applied throughout the town. Yes, it is a year old, but proportionally not much has changed.
If you would like to understand just where all those dollars go, take a look at “Where Do My Taxes Go?’ here.
Understanding what happens to your taxes might not make it any easier to write the check, but being an educated citizen is never a bad thing.
