November 18, 2013
MEMO
To: Lexington Board of Selectmen
From: Lexington Board of Assessors
Subject: FY2014 Tax Classification Hearing
Date: November 18, 2013
This memo is intended to provide the Board of Selectmen with the necessary information to conduct a
Public Hearing and Information Session on the tax classification options available under Massachusetts
General Laws. The classification amendment requires the Board of Selectmen to consider four selections
with respect to the setting the FY2014 tax rate. The decision of the Board for each alternative must be
submitted to the DOR on form LA5. The four (4) selections are:
1. Selection of a residential factor
2. Selection of a discount for Open Space
3. A residential exemption
4. A small commercial exemption
These selections are discussed below.
1.Selection of a residential factor.
The Board of Selectmen may adopt a residential factor, thus increasing the commercial, industrial, and
personal property (C-I-P) tax rate by a maximum factor of 1.750. The attached Exhibits A & B
demonstrate the shift that the various C-I-P factors have on the percentage of the tax levy borne by each
class and the resulting tax rates. Approximately 100 of the 351 communities in Massachusetts adopt this
component of classification. Adopting the residential factor is, in practice, only available to communities
that have a commercial tax base.
2.Selection of a discount for Open Space.
Massachusetts General Law Chapter 59 Sec. 2A Defines Class 2 Open Space as:
"..land which is not otherwise classified and which is not taxable under provisions of chapters 61,
61A or 61B, or taxable under a permanent conservation restriction, and which land is not held for
the production of income but is maintained in an open or natural condition and which contributes
significantly to the benefit and enjoyment of the public."
A maximum exemption of 25% may be adopted for all property that is classified as Open Space.
The Assessors have not identified any property that meets the definition of Open Space
according to the statute. Bedford was the only community in the Commonwealth of MA to adopt
this exemption in FY2013.
1
Board of Selectmen
Tax Classification Hearing
November 18, 2013
3.Residential exemption.
The Board of Selectmen may adopt a maximum residential exemption of 20%. This exemption applies
only to owner-occupied properties. Those below the break-even point realize a reduction in taxes and
those above pay additional taxes. Non owner-occupied properties would have a substantial increase in
taxes including apartments and vacant land. Refer to the example in Exhibit H in this classification
packet.
Thirteen (13) communities in the Commonwealth of MA, typically those with a substantial base of rental
units, adopted this exemption in FY2013 Barnstable, Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett,
Malden, Nantucket, Somerset, Somerville, Tisbury, Waltham and Watertown.
In Lexington in FY2014, Single Family Dwellings have an average assessed value of about $740,000
(rounded); however, the average assessed value for all “residential parcels” in Lexington (including the
following categories: single family dwellings, two & three family buildings, vacant land, condominiums,
and apartment buildings is (rounded):
$689,000
4.Small commercial exemption
An exemption of up to 10% of the property valuation can be granted to commercial (not industrial)
property that meets the requirements of the law. To qualify, eligible businesses must have occupied the
property as of January 1, must have had no more than ten (10) employees during the previous calendar
year and the building must have a valuation of less than $1,000,000. While the eligible business owners
do not have to own the building, all occupants of the commercial portion of the building must qualify.
Ten (10) Commonwealth of MA communities adopted the small commercial exemption in FY2013:
Auburn, Avon, Bellingham, Braintree, Dartmouth, New Ashford, Seekonk, Somerset, Westford, and
Wrentham.
