Town officials, through the Office of Community and Economic Development, are soliciting program proposals from municipal agencies and community non-profit organizations for funding consideration under the NAA program.
"This program allows businesses to claim a State tax credit for cash contributions made to qualifying community programs conducted by tax exempt or municipal agencies," according to a press release. "The types of community programs that qualify for the NAA tax credit program include, but are not necessarily limited to: energy conservation; employment and training; child care services; neighborhood assistance; substance abuse; open space acquisition; crime prevention programs and affordable housing development."
The minimum contribution on which a tax credit may be granted is $250, and the maximum contribution that any non-profit or municipal entity can receive under this program is $150,000.
For further information about the Neighborhood Assistance Act Program or to receive an application packet, residents can contact the Office of Community and Economic Development at (203) 256-3120 or go to the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services website. All applications must be received by close of business on April 28 in order to be considered.
