Conn. Gen. Stat. § 12-81aa (2025)

(a) If the real property of an “eligible industrial site investment project” or an “eligible urban reinvestment project”, each as defined in section 32-9t, which has received written approval from the Commissioner of Economic and Community Development for a credit under section 32-9t, does not otherwise qualify for abatement or exemption of property taxes under any other provision of the general statutes, the municipality in which such project is located may, for a period of five assessment years following the certification of the project under section 32-9t, abate fifty per cent of the portion of the property tax due that is attributable to the increased value of such property as a result of the approved remediation, construction or other development under section 32-9t. The abatement shall cease upon the sale or transfer of the property for any other purpose unless the municipality consents to its continuation. The municipality may also establish a recapture provision in the event of sale, provided such recapture shall not exceed the original amount of taxes abated.

(b) A municipality shall notify the Commissioner of Economic and Community Development and the Secretary of the Office of Policy and Management not later than thirty days after granting any abatement of taxes under subsection (a) of this section. Such notice shall provide the owner or purchaser's name, as the case may be, and the address of the property.
