Moultonborough Home Inspections for Assessments!

ACME on the Broads · 12-22-2020, 08:50 AM

Not sure if anyone else recently received letters from the assessor's office in Moultonborough but, these usually terrific people working for the town have either become totally deaf or are incapable of keeping up with the daily news of the last 11 months concerning Covid-19.

It's incredulous that they want to come into homes now during the pandemic to perform inspections due to the 20% town review quota; I ask, has the assessor or her people heard, seen or read about the human suffering, impact on our economy, job losses, small business closures, restaurants shutting down, sadly and probably most troubling the thousands of deaths associated from Covid-19? Is now a time when the town should add to that risk?

Given state and federal guidelines suggesting no/minimal exposure to others, the town should not be asking for entry into our homes and residents shouldn't allow inspections until Covid-19 is clearly in the rear view mirror for all; is it smart timing for the town to introduce additional risk to its residents while the pandemic remains deadly? Why risk exposing so many Moultonborough residents to the pandemic????

Moultonborough Selectmen, Assessor and Town Managers, you're far better than this; I would respectfully suggest in these still very uncertain times, you consider pushing this process back for at least a year.

Merry Christmas, and here's to a Happy, Healthy and Safe 2021
