Bill > HB06732

This bill proposes to expand a property tax exemption for permanently and totally disabled veterans by modifying an existing statute. Currently, disabled veterans are eligible for a property tax exemption on their dwelling, but this bill would extend that exemption to include the land on which the dwelling sits. Additionally, the bill would allow the surviving spouse of a deceased veteran who was previously eligible for the exemption to continue receiving the tax break. By broadening the scope of the existing veterans' property tax exemption, the legislation aims to provide more financial relief to disabled veterans and their families, acknowledging their service and sacrifice by reducing their property tax burden. The bill would amend subdivision (83) of section 12-81 of the general statutes to implement these changes, effectively making the property tax exemption more comprehensive and supportive of veterans and their immediate families.
