The Hook Boat Club: 31 acres, 15+ residences, 10+ other structures, marina, pavilion, Hudson River views, grant for rail crossing, surrounded by state land, private, Assessment: $358,600.00, Tax burden: $7,093.00


Will the dog man, your humble blogger: 14 acres, 1 residence, 1 barn, 1 shed, 1 garage, no waterfront, no state land, semi-private, Assessment: $465,000.00Tax burden: $9,198.00

Fair or not fair? Please discuss. More than 10 times as many building, twice as much land, better land, better privacy, better protection from development, Hudson river access, etc. and yet pays about 25% less in tax.

I'm definitely going to this trails conference.
