Tax Cap

Con el límite, los impuestos locales a la propiedad que financian las escuelas no podrán superar el monto del año anterior, ajustado según la inflación y las nuevas obras.

Under the cap, local school property taxes cannot grow beyond the prior year's amount, adjusted for inflation and new construction.

The ballot for every New Hampshire city and town this year asked voters if they want to limit increases to their school property taxes to the adjusted rate of inflation, plus the value of new construction.

The cap would limit increases to local school taxes by targeting schools' administrate costs. But public officials say it could result in cuts to staff, extra-curricular activities, bus routes, and advanced classes.

New guidance from the New Hampshire Attorney General's office over electioneering comes days after the Concord Board of Education sent out a statement to families on a school messaging channel urging them to vote against the school tax cap on the general election ballot.

The ballot for every New Hampshire town and city this coming Election Day will ask voters if they want to adopt a two-year tax cap that would limit increases to their school property taxes.

Voters will decide next month whether to cap their school taxes to the rate of inflation.

The question asks voters to vote yes or no on imposing a tax cap on local school spending.

Update: The New Hampshire Supreme Court, in an order issued late Thursday, denied an emergency motion for a temporary restraining order to stop the state from sending ballots to towns and cities.
