As you may know, Colombia has suffered a devastating earthquake and there are many people in need. One of our Attorney’s family is from a rural area outside of Cali which was hit particularly hard, and, it is so remote that it doesn’t even have trained first responders to assist in rescue and recovery efforts. They have started a Go Fund Me page to raise money for emergency supplies for the area, specifically their family’s hometown of Restrepo, and there is family there on-site to procure and distribute the supplies. We are asking for donations to assist this effort, and anything you can spare would go a long way towards helping some very desperate people. Thank you as always.

Fairfield's "Revaluation Notice of Assessment" letters have been confusing a lot of Town Property Owners. They discuss a "Hearing" in bold writing. What they are referring to is an informal call with Tyler Technologies, the private company hired by the Town to conduct the Townwide Revaluation. Many people receiving this notice have been confused into thinking they only have until January 9th to appeal their new Assessment - this is incorrect. The official deadline to appeal to the Fairfield Board of Assessment Appeals is February 20th (as mentioned later in the notice).

If you believe that Tyler Technologies improperly described your property on your field card (i.e. got your square footage or number of bedrooms wrong), then it absolutely makes sense to schedule an informal call with them to correct your property data. You have until January 9th to schedule this call.

If you want to challenge the Town's new valuation of your property, you have until February 20th to file an official appeal with the Board of Assessment Appeals (the "BAA"), where you will have the opportunity to make your argument to your fellow Town Residents who were elected to the BAA. Property Owners may file an appeal themselves, or if you would like help, please contact the Attorneys at Russo & Rizio and we would be happy to assist you.
