I don't live on an island,and realize that they have chosen to be there,but it is totally unfair that they have to do all the heavy lifting with so little for their money.They should lobby or use thew courts for a lower tax rate.

Sewer and water services for private residences and commercial properties are paid for by the owners. It's likely the only town sewer and town water they're paying for are the services to town facilities...schools, town hall, police, fire, etc. Perhaps that's what you meant.
