The Connecticut Commission on Aging ,  with support from the General Assembly's Select Committee on Aging ,  has compiled an inventory of tax relief programs for older adults offered by Connecticut’s cities and towns. The survey results will be shared with towns, the General Assembly and other interested parties to help promote thoughtful and effective  tax-relief  policies . 

In the fall of 2001, the Commission on Aging conducted a similar survey that  recorded  local property tax relief programs for older adults in towns throughout Connecticut. This follow-up survey seeks to compile a current statewide inventory of local property tax relief programs  operating before and in response to PA 06-176, as well as new programs currently under development. We hope to use this data to  gain  a much better understanding of local communities' efforts to provide property tax relief.  This, in turn, will  help  the Commission suggest future legislative efforts  that  might be made at the state level .
