CT SB00345

Modifies the wartime service property tax exemption under Connecticut General Statutes section 12-81(19) to expand eligibility for Korean conflict veterans, effective October 1, 2024.

Redefines the Korean conflict period for tax exemption purposes as June 27, 1950, to December 31, 1957 (extended from the original ending date).

Maintains the $1,000 property tax exemption amount for qualified veterans including those who served in the armed forces during wartime, allied military service in World War II, merchant marines, and retired military personnel.

Allows more Korean conflict-era veterans to qualify for the exemption by extending the recognized service period through the end of 1957.

Clarifies that "veteran," "armed forces," and "service in time of war" definitions follow section 27-103 of Connecticut law, with the specific Korean conflict date exception noted.
