As Amended by Senate "A" (LCO 10107), Senate "B" (LCO 10105) House Calendar No.: 600 Senate Calendar No.: 403 Primary Analyst: DD 6/5/21 Contributing Analyst(s): OFA Fiscal Note State Impact: None Municipal Impact: Municipalities Effect FY 22 $ FY 23 $ Hartford; Middletown; Plainville Cost/Revenue Loss See Below None Explanation The bill allows taxpayers in Hartford, Middletown, and Plainville to receive a tax exemption that they otherwise would have been eligible to receive if they had not missed the filing deadline for the exemption. The bill results in either a revenue loss to the municipalities of Hartford, Middletown, and Plainville or a cost to reimburse taxpayers that have paid taxes for exempt property. It is anticipated that any impact would only occur in FY 22. The bill also makes clarifying changes regarding fees paid to the Secretary of the State. This has no fiscal impact. Senate "A" removes a provision allowing taxpayers in Middlefield to receive a tax exemption if they missed the filing deadline. This eliminates any impact to Middlefield from the bill. 2021SB-01100-R01-FN.DOCX Page 2 of 2 Senate "A" also makes changes to the types of tax exemptions for which taxpayers in the City of Middletown may be eligible if they missed the filing deadline. This has a net impact of expanding or reducing the cost or revenue loss to Middletown in the underlying bill, depending on the value of the exemptions impacted by the amendment. Senate "B" clarifies the language regarding certain fees paid to the Secretary of State. This has no fiscal impact. The Out Years There is no fiscal impact in the out years, as the bill relates to tax payments made in one fiscal year only.
