BERLIN — The city set its tax rate Tuesday night, a rate that is $3.99 per $1,000 valuation higher than the 2023 rate of $26.90. The rate for 2024, typically set in November and late due to the Burgess Biopower plant bankruptcy that delayed determination of the city’s value, is $30.89 per $1,000 real property valuation.
Estimated revenues did not prove accurate for a reason that remains unclear as noted by councilors Korzen and Grenier, who sought more explanation from City Manager Phillip L. Warren Jr.
