Real Estate Tax Appeals
If, after receiving a decision from the Board of Assessment Appeals, you are still not satisfied with your valuation, you can make application for remedy to the Superior Court within 60 days from the date of the mailing of a Board of Assessment Appeal's Action Notice (CGS 12-117a).
If your appeal was denied and you choose not to apply to Superior Court, you may appeal to the Board of Assessment Appeals the following year. If your appeal was granted or granted in part, and you choose not to apply to Superior Court, you must wait until the next revaluation cycle to appeal again.
