HB 5708 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT ESTABLISHING A PROPERTY TAX FREEZE FOR CERTAIN SENIORS AND REIMBURSING MUNICIPALITIES FOR LOST REVENUE.

This bill would freeze property taxes for seniors meeting specific income and asset thresholds, directly affecting qualifying older residents.
