New Boston tax rate cut to 23.20 amid large city levy rise
Portsmouth area tax figures show New Boston's rate at 23.20 dollars per thousand, down 40 cents from this year due to bond retirement fund needs easing. The rate reflects a 3.55 mill city school levy and a 4-mill bond retirement increase, with distributions across county, city, schools, and state funds and detailed impacts on police, fire, flood defense, and Mt. Logan stadium costs.
