BERLIN — The board of assessors voted Thursday to direct the city’s assessing firm to expand the list of land sales and use the updated land component to recalculate its statistical update.

The hope is the expanded land sales will help the update more realistically reflect the city’s housing market. Board Chair Robert Goddard said the board is looking for less disparity and more conformity with the assessments.
