Lower Property Values: 31 votes
Calculation of Margin of Error:
Comparing ‘No Change’ vs. Lower Property Values:
No change: 62 votes
Lower Property Values: 31 votes
n=93
Using the formula: Margin of Error = ±10.1%
No change: 62 votes±10.1%= 62 votes ±6.3 votes = a range of 55.7 to 68.3
Lower Property Values: 31 votes±10.1%=31 votes ±3.1 votes = a range of 27.9 to 34.1
The ranges do not overlap, therefore, the majority vote that such a policy will not effect property values is statistically significant at the 95% confidence level (i.e. 19 times out of 20) and we would expect a vote of the general Community would yield the same result.
Discussion of Results:
The results are fairly consistent, with all age categories agreeing that a tops-optional policy would not effect property values.
