Clinton Veterans’ Property Tax Exemptions

Clinton’s pages print no veterans’ amounts. OLR’s 2023 survey records the 12-81g(b) option and a specially equipped vehicle exemption, and a 12-81f wartime additional exemption adopted without an amount.

Also called: property tax, 12-81g, veterans exemption, assessor, Clinton.

For: Veteran or service member.

Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

The assessor’s page and its property tax relief page say relief “may include Elderly programs, Motor Vehicle exemptions, Farm and Forest land, Tax Exempt organizations, and Veteran’s exemptions” and print no amounts. The wartime exemption is $1,000 of assessed value under C.G.S. 12-81(19), with the 12-81g(a) additional exemption of twice that for income under the 12-81l limit, $46,300 single and $56,500 married for the 2026 grand list. OLR’s 2023 survey lists Clinton among the towns offering the 12-81g(b) option, three times the 12-81(20) exemption for a veteran rated 100 percent with income of $21,000 single or $24,000 married, and among those exempting a specially equipped vehicle of a veteran eligible under 12-81. Clinton also answered yes to the 12-81f(a) wartime additional exemption but gave no amount. The town’s code is on eCode360 (CL2816), which stayed behind its Cloudflare challenge (dubiousenvelope/vettoc issue 168), so no adoption could be read; ask the assessor.

Figures

Each figure is dated with the day it was read. A local figure moves whenever the statute or the local ordinance does, so confirm it with the office that grants it before you rely on it. Statute verified gives the day the weekly section check last found the statute standing on the legislature’s own code site; a figure without it rests on a statute the check does not read yet.
