Property Tax Survey

The Connecticut Commission on Aging and 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 policies on this matter.

In the fall of 2001, the Commission on Aging conducted a similar survey that looked at local property tax relief programs for older adults in towns throughout Connecticut. This follow-up survey seeks to compile a current state-wide inventory of local property tax relief programs, both operating before and in response to PA 06-176, as well as those new programs that are currently under development. We hope to use this data to provide us with a much better understanding of local communities' efforts to provide property tax relief.  This, in turn, will aid us in deciding what future legislative efforts might be made at the state level in 2008 and beyond.
