Board of Assessment Appeals – Time Extension
The Board of Assessment Appeals (BAA) received an overwhelming number of appeals of property values resulting from the October 2023 revaluation. The BAA worked diligently but was not able to finish their work as required by the end of March due to the large number of appeals. They have been granted an extension to complete deciding the appeals. The time extension calls for the BAA appeal application process be reopened to allow property owners to submit an appeal to the BAA.
Property owners wishing to submit an appeal will have between Monday April, 8th and until Saturday, April 20th to do so by submitting a request to the Assessor’s Office. Must be filed in person by 5:00pm on Friday, April 19th to the Assessors Department at Town Hall (275 Broad Street) OR by email (townassessor@townofwindsorct.com) by 11:59pm on April 20th.
In Windsor, as required by Connecticut law, assessments are done based on 70% of the fair market value of all real estate, motor vehicles and business personal property. The revaluation of Windsor real estate to determine fair market value was completed for the October 1, 2023 Grand List. Those real estate values will be in place for the next five years. Motor vehicle values are determined annually through the use of the JD Power Guides and business personal property is valued through the use of annual declarations verified by independent audit.
Windsor’s Grand List is comprised of the assessed value of all real estate, motor vehicles and personal property.
The Windsor Town Assessor is available to explain and discuss assessments, revaluations and options regarding appeals. Please email us at: townassessor@townofwindsorct.com
