Land use measurement in table is based on the
parcel "Use Code" assigned by the tax assessor to describe current
use. Use Code is NOT a zoning specification, but a measure of actual use.
|
|
|
[1] Proof of payment obtained for two PILOT
(Payment in Lieu of Taxes): 100K from Boston College and 20K from the Stone
Institute. The Mayor's budget sources list PILOT paments of $360K, however.
The additonal PILOT payments will be added to the table when proof of payment
is obtained. There were also two tax bills totalling 134K in the exempt
property data received from the Newton Assessors Database.
|
|
|
[2] Residential, Office, Professional, Retail
Condos with common lot are counted as
one "Distinct Property."
|
|
|
[3] Commercial use excludes 525 Nursing Home Units
from the "Residential Unit" count. Non-Transient Group Quarters
includes 394 Assisted Living Units in the "Residential Unit"
count.
|
|
|
[4] Given the small volume and lack of exempt Use
Code detail, exempt government/charitable non-apartment housing, including
two families, are all measured as one residential unit.
|
|
|
[5] The total billed property tax (only) revenue
of $355,160,017 was doublechecked against the $356,892,067 FY2020 property
tax revenue in the Mayor's FY2021 Comparative Summary of Budget Sources and
Uses. http://www.newtonma.gov/civicax/filebank/documents/103609
