SOUTHWEST HARBOR – Selectmen on Wednesday set the property tax rate for the new tax year at $15.60 per $1,000 in valuation, an increase over last year’s rate of $14.60, Town Manager Kenneth Minier said Thursday.
A homeowner with a home valued at $100,000 will have to pay a tax of $1,560 or $100 more than last year.
The tax base of the town increased $7 million over last year, to $339 million, the manager said.
The new tax rate will take effect with the property tax bills due in October, Minier said.
