Bill Summary

To allow certain persons to file for a certain property tax exemption, notwithstanding certain statutory deadlines, and authorize the town of Trumbull to defer the revaluation of real property in said town by one year.

AI Summary

This bill makes several modifications to existing laws across various areas of Connecticut state governance. It allows municipalities with fewer than 16,000 residents to petition for town referendums on certain environmental permits starting September 30, 2025, and provides the Department of Developmental Services with funding to increase rates for contracted service providers by 3.3% in two stages during fiscal year 2028. The bill extends the Commissioner of Education's network of schools program through fiscal year 2028 while preventing the selection of any new schools after July 1, 2025. It also permits local boards of education to deposit up to 2% of their prior year's budget into a nonlapsing account for educational purposes and requires reporting on these funds starting in fiscal year 2026. Additionally, the bill allows specific towns (Berlin, Canton, Manchester, Milford, New Haven, and Newington) to file late property tax exemption statements with a fee, and enables the towns of Newington and Trumbull to defer their real property revaluations from the 2025 assessment year to the 2026 assessment year. These changes aim to provide flexibility for municipalities and educational institutions in managing their financial and administrative processes.
