Kingston Selectmen Discuss Two Long-Term PILOT Agreements and Approve Annual Tax Map Contract
- Meeting Overview:
During the recent Kingston Board of Selectmen meeting, members authorized the continuation of two long-standing Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) agreements and approved a contract for tax map maintenance. The PILOT agreements involve payments from Ring Road Solar and a special needs home on Indian Pond, while the tax map contract ensures up-to-date mapping services for the town.
The most notable discussion centered on the two PILOT agreements. The first, with Ring Road Solar, involves a fixed annual payment of just under $4,000, which has been predetermined for a 20-year period. This arrangement ensures stability and predictability in revenue from the solar entity. A second PILOT agreement pertains to a special needs home on Indian Pond. This agreement is calculated annually based on the number of bedrooms and the current tax rate, with this year’s commitment amounting to $425.
In addition to the PILOT discussions, the Board approved a $3,900 contract with an online vendor for annual tax map maintenance. This contract, which has been consistent in pricing, is essential for keeping the town’s mapping services up to date, allowing for any changes or new plans that arise within the year.
