Tax Incentives
North Branford's tax abatement framework stipulates that projects must involve real property improvements for at least one of the following: (1) office use; (2) manufacturing use; (3) warehouse, storage or distribution use; (4) information technology; or (5) redevelopment of existing retail properties that involve substantial renovations or restoration of the exterior of the building and improvements to landscaping. Other uses may be provided an abatement if the applicant demonstrates that the project will have a special benefit to the community. The value of real property improvements must be greater than $200,000 if the project is for office use, for manufacturing use, for warehouse, storage or distribution use or for information technology, unless the applicant demonstrates that the project will have a special benefit to the community. The value of real property improvements must be greater than $50,000 if the project is for redevelopment of existing retail properties that involve substantial renovations or restoration of the exterior of the building and improvements to landscaping. Additional abatements may be considered for projects involving real property improvements greater than three million dollars.
