Connecticut General Statutes Title 13A. Highways and Bridges § 13a-83. Assessment of benefits by municipalities

The proper authorities of any city or borough and the selectmen of any town, unless otherwise provided in its charter, may assess, or cause to be assessed, the benefits accruing to any person by the layout, grading or alteration of any highway therein, upon giving written notice to the parties to be benefited of the time and place of meeting therefor, and order such benefits to be paid by the parties assessed, respectively, to the town, city or borough, as the case may be, within such time as they appoint. Such benefits may be collected in the same manner as town taxes are collected.
