The amendment strikes the underlying bill and its associated fiscal
impact.
Sections 1-8 allows taxpayers in Berlin, Bloomfield, East Hampton,
Middletown, Thomaston, Thompson, West Hartford, and West Haven
to receive tax exemptions that they would have otherwise been eligible
to receive if they had not missed the filing deadline for such exemptions
in certain years. Depending on whether the payments have already been
made, this results in a cost to these towns to reimburse such taxpayers,
or a revenue loss. It is anticipated that any impact would only occur in
FY 24.
Section 9 validates the plan of consolidation between the town of
Manchester and the Eighth Utilities District. Any impact to Manchester
and the Eighth Utilities District will depend on the terms of the
consolidation.
Section 10 validates the notice of assessment increase for the October
1, 2022, grand list for the city of Norwalk. This may result in potential
revenue gain to Norwalk to the extent this results in an assessment
increase. 2023SB-01234-R00LCO08939-FNA.DOCX Page 2 of 2
Section 11 permits the town of Windham to update statements filed
with the Office of Policy and Management (OPM) related to the motor
vehicle property tax grants. This results in a cost to OPM and a
corresponding revenue gain to the town of Windham in FY 24 and FY
25.
