TAX CLASSIFICATION HEARING, SUDBURY LEGAL NOTICE TOWN OF SUDBURY PUBLIC HEARING ATTENTION: TAXPAYERS   In accordance with General Laws Ch. 40, sec. 56, as amended, the Sudbury Select Board will hold a public hearing on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, at 7:15 p.m. remotely via Zoom teleconference, to determine what percentage of the local tax levy will be borne by each class of real and personal property relative to setting the Fiscal Year 2026 tax rate.   The first policy decision of the Select Board will be to determine the Residential Factor, which means the percentage of the tax levy to be borne by residential property. The Residential Factor determines how different tax rates for residential, commercial and industrial properties will be established. A Residential Factor of 1 means that the local tax rate will be a single rate uniformly applied to all properties. The other options to be considered are whether or not to allow a residential property exemption, a small commercial exemption, and a discussion of the open space exemption. In addition to the above, there will be some discussion regarding Sudbury’s senior residential tax exemption with respect to the program’s estimated total cost and impact on the residential tax rate for Fiscal Year 2026.   At this public hearing, the Board of Assessors will provide all information and data relevant to helping the Select Board make a determination of a single or multiple tax rates and the fiscal effect of the available alternatives to taxpayers. Taxpayers may present oral or written information on their views prior to or at the public hearing.   SUDBURY SELECT BOARD Lisa V. Kouchakdjian, Chair Janie W. Dretler, Vice-Chair Daniel E. Carty Radha R. Gargeya Charles G. Russo   AD#11776690 DN 11/18, 11/25/2025
