Granby to Participate in Neighborhood Act Program

The Connecticut Department of Revenue Services (DRS) has announced the 2019 Connecticut Neighborhood Assistance Act Program Proposal. This program provides tax credits to businesses that make cash investments in qualifying community non-profit programs. Past approved projects have come from public service departments such as police, fire and ambulance; health service agencies, land trusts and more. Requests have included energy saving measures such as new windows, boiler replacement and fuel efficient vehicles; programs for youth, parents and seniors; and more.

To be considered, community organizations must submit an application to Sandra Yost, Director of Human Services, Town of Granby, 15 North Granby Road, Granby, CT 06035 by May 28, 2019. Selectmen will then have a public hearing on June 3, 2019 to approve proposals for submittal to the Department of Revenue Services by July 1, 2019. Applications and information about the NAA Tax Credit Program can be found on the DRS website at www.ct.gov/DRS, searchable by entering “Neighborhood Assistance Act”.
