Every East Arlington homeowner operates under Vermont property tax law, and understanding the state context is the first step toward a successful challenge.

Vermont market character

Vermont towns reassess independently, and the state publishes Common Level of Appraisal (CLA) ratios that expose towns where assessments lag market. Rapid appreciation in Chittenden County and ski towns has increased the value of well-evidenced grievances.

How Vermont handles grievances

Vermont homeowners file a "grievance" with the local listers, then appeal to the Board of Civil Authority, then state appraisers or Superior Court. Grievances do carry a small risk of increase in some towns.

When to file in East Arlington

Grievance Day is set by each town but typically falls in late May or early June. File the grievance in writing before the listed grievance day.
