Select Board OKs $19,000 Contract to Review Pratt & Whitney Abatement Appraisal
Summary
The Select Board authorized a $19,000 contract with Cornell Consultants to review an appraisal submitted by Pratt & Whitney in an abatement matter; staff said the review should take about six weeks.
The North Berwick Select Board voted unanimously April 21 to authorize a $19,000 contract with Cornell Consultants to review an appraisal submitted by Pratt & Whitney related to a tax abatement request. Town staff said the review is expected to take about six weeks.
Dwayne Morin presented the proposal and the board approved the contract 5-0. The review will evaluate the appraisal evidence provided by Pratt & Whitney as part of the town's abatement process; staff did not provide additional public detail about the appraisal's contents at the meeting.
The board treated the item as an expenditure of professional services to inform the town's position on a pending abatement; no vote on the abatement itself was taken at the April 21 meeting. The town will return with the consultant's findings when available.
