UPDATE FROM THE TAX OFFICE: 

Real Estate tax bills, based on the temporary rate of 31 mills, were sent out at the beginning of August.  These bills MUST be paid by September 2nd. If not paid by then, interest will added to the account.  Please go to the Tax Collector’s department on the website on how interest is calculated.

If you use your banks bill pay, please be aware that a check is mailed to us without a postmark. If we receive ANY payment after September 2nd without a postmark it will be considered late. Please see payment options under the Tax Collector’s department for other means of paying. Interest cannot be waived per state statute.

Motor Vehicle, Personal Property, and the remaining balance due on Real Estate Accounts will be billed in September to be paid in October. These bills will be based on the recently adopted mill rate of 32.3.

Paint Disposal

Latex Paint:

On July 1, 2013, PaintCare, a non-profit association of paint and coating manufacturers, rolled out a program in Connecticut designed to collect and recycle unwanted paint and coatings. The program is a direct result of the Paint Stewardship Law passed in 2011 and has resulted in a network of convenient drop-off locations for unwanted oil and latex paint. There are over 140 retail drop-off locations in the state. * Latex paint can now be brought to the Mid-NEROC Chemical Waste Drop-Off Facility at 57 Hancock Road in Willington along with oil based paint.

Oil Based Paint:

Oil based paint can be brought to the Mid-NEROC Chemical Waster Drop-Off Facility located in Willington at 57 Hancock Road.  Businesses will be charged based on the material type and quantity. Businesses, call 684-3163 to make an appointment. There is no charge for household hazardous waste.

Hours: 9:00 am to 2:00 pm, the third Saturday of each month, beginning the third Saturday in April . The facility is closed the Saturday of Fourth of July and Labor Day weekend. 2025 CALENDAR HERE.
