Not sure that catches as many as one may presuppose, and according to the statements... that would lower the property taxes for the remaining residents of Moultonborough.

So do all of the property owners need to submit personal financial statements and those that can afford to pay additional additional property taxes can pay them. I was always under the impression that property taxes were based on the value of the property not how much you could pay. I hope these folks realize that New Hampshire doesn't have a monopoly on lakeside real estate and there are plenty of options in Maine, Vermont, etc.
