Thank you for this information and helpful post. Every Tuftonboro island property owner should send the selectmen a message telling them that "we're mad as hell, and not going to take it anymore". This is complete BS, and a total kick in the private parts. This, coupled with their outrageous, unrealistic reassessment of island properties (as compared with mainland waterfront properties) is reason to bombard the Town with protests.
Time to get the message across, folks.
