Taxation and Finance

What’s the authority for the SCA  tax?

Our charter and Connecticut law authorize the Stony Creek Association to levy and collect taxes on real property within our boundaries. The complete laws regarding taxing by municipalities can be found in the Connecticut General Statutes, Chapters 204 and 205.

How are the taxes used?

Your tax payments fund the Association’s budget.

How are taxes calculated?

Your tax is calculated on the assessed value of your property. The SCA uses the same assessed value as the Town of Branford. The assessed value is multiplied by the mill rate, which along with the budget, is approved by SCA members at the annual meeting each year. For 2026 the mill rate is .076865 per $1000

How can I pay my tax?

The tax collector mails tax bills in July and are due by August 30th to avoid late charges. We now offer payment on line using the following link: https://square.link/u/EQv4UeqD
