Legal Notice RE: Business Personal Property Filing

The Assessor of the Town of Plainville, Connecticut, does hereby give notice to every person and/or firm, resident, or non-resident liable for taxation in the Town of Plainville, to file with the Assessor a statement of personal property on premises as of October 1, 2023, in accordance with section 12-42 and 12-43 as amended of the Statutes of the State of Connecticut.

Taxpayers are required to list all personal property (except registered motor vehicles) i.e. machinery, horses, furniture and fixtures of commercial, industrial, manufacturing, mercantile trading, cables, wires, poles, underground mains conduits, pipes and other fixtures of water, gas, electric and heating companies, leasehold interest other than real property and all other business occupations and professions on special forms provided on the Town of Plainville web site, on or before the first day of November 2023. Unregistered vehicles (i.e. snowmobiles, trailers, campers, unregistered autos and autos garaged in Plainville that are registered in another state) must also be declared.  Failure to file will result in the Assessor preparing said declaration from the best information available and a penalty of twenty-five percent (25%) will be added.

Personal property declarations can be obtained online on the Assessment & Revenue Collections Office page at www.plainvillect.com/assessments or in the office. If you have any questions, please contact the Assessor’s Office at 860-793-0221 ext. 8733. Failure to receive a form from the Assessor’s Office does not excuse a property owner from the obligation to declare personal property by November 1, 2023.
