AN ACT CONCERNING A PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION FOR CERTAIN DISABLED VETERANS.

HB 6733 expands a property tax exemption for disabled veterans to include both the dwelling and the land it sits on, rather than covering only the home itself. It clarifies that veterans must have a 100% service-connected disability rating from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to qualify, specifying that this rating must be permanent and total. The bill directly affects veterans with a 100% VA disability rating who own residential property. This change modifies existing eligibility rules under section 12-81 of the general statutes without creating new financial obligations.
