The Tax Man Cometh...

All the different town have to submit their assessments to the State for certification. The State now requires that the assesse values should be between 90 and 110% of the fair market value. Also the towns are required to reassess at least once every our years or more freqently. The assessing process is supposed to be part of a state wide tax system that is equal all across the state just like the 8% hotel & meals tax is the same 8% all across the State.

Here's a not too related tax question for anyone. At the Super Market in Centre Harbor, how come a $1.09 chocolate whoopie pie does not get this 8% tax while a chicken salad sandwich does. Both are wrapped in plastic, and are labeled but just the sandwich gets taxed. Seriously here, no foolin' aroun here; capice(!), this is a very serious business, so WHY is that? What is what, like how come?
