🚨 $7.5 BILLION IN DRA ADJUSTMENTS SINCE 2016— WHERE DOES IT GO?

HAMPTON TAXPAYERS DESERVE ANSWERS.

From 2016 through 2024, New Hampshire’s Department of Revenue Administration records identify approximately $7.493 BILLION in annual DRA adjustments/equalization figures associated with Hampton.

And the numbers get staggering:

🔥 $5.44 BILLION — 73% — CAME IN JUST THREE YEARS

Between 2021 and 2023, the reported figures total approximately:

2021: $1.266 BILLION

2022: $1.903 BILLION

2023: $2.275 BILLION

TOTAL: $5.444 BILLION

That is approximately 72.7% — nearly THREE-QUARTERS — of the entire $7.493 BILLION identified.

THE BIG QUESTION:

WHAT EXACTLY ARE THESE BILLIONS?

Were they adjustments to Hampton's local assessed valuation?

Or are they DRA equalization figures used for statewide/county/school tax apportionment?

WHO calculated them?

WHAT data was used?

WHAT properties or property classes were involved?

WHAT mathematical formula produced them?

WHO reviewed and approved them?

WHEN did Hampton receive them?

AND WHERE — EXACTLY — ARE THEY RECORDED IN HAMPTON'S MUNICIPAL ASSESSMENT RECORDS?

That's precisely what the RSA 91-A Right-to-Know request demands.

💥 THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR OPINIONS.

It is a demand for the underlying government records — MS-1 submissions, spreadsheets, ratio studies, calculations, worksheets, correspondence, corrections, databases and municipal records capable of showing exactly how these numbers were produced and treated.

$7.493 BILLION IS TOO BIG TO WAVE AWAY.

And when $5.444 BILLION — nearly 73% — appears in only 2021–2023, Hampton taxpayers have every right to ask:

WHAT CHANGED — AND WHERE IS THE PAPER TRAIL?

NO MORE GENERALIZATIONS.

NO MORE TALKING POINTS.
