    Stamford, CT

Stamford Downtown is a Special Services District established in 1992 that supplements city services in the urban core through sanitation, landscaping, placemaking, and marketing to achieve goals including economic development, residential growth, retail recruitment, and increased downtown foot traffic. The district's FY22 revenue comes primarily from special assessments (58%), contributions (28%), and event revenue (10%), with the city contributing $190,000 to cover less than 20% of public realm maintenance costs and less than 10% of public community event costs. Stamford Downtown provides extensive services including daily streetscape cleaning, snow removal, social outreach, park improvements, and free public events such as the Farmers Market, Balloon Parade Spectacular, and exercise classes, while maintaining a spending ratio of over $21 in district investment for every $1 of direct city contribution.

  • Code Enforcement Legislation

    Scranton, PA
    Other

    On November 10, 2022, the City submitted four pieces of related code enforcement legislation aimed at reducing regulatory burden while improving housing quality and code compliance. The legislation package includes Permits Reform (repealing 20 obsolete permit requirements that collected only $150 in 2022 fees while permanently extending the peddler's license fee reduction), Contractor Licensing Reform (simplifying contractor license requirements such as reducing reference letter requirements), Inspection Fee Reform (reducing inspection fees by 45%), and Rental Regulation Reform (establishing regular inspections of rental properties and strengthening enforcement mechanisms). The permits and fee changes are projected to increase net revenue collections by $22,800, from $18,550 in 2022 to $41,500 in 2023, while the legislation aims to cut red tape for contractors, businesses, homeowners, and residents.

  • Property Taxes Dear Ms. Rosenson:

    Stamford, CT
    Other

    This document consists of two letters from Stamford residents to city officials opposing proposed property tax increases, dated April 15, 2020. Andy Dimitri reports that his property taxes have increased 25% since moving to Stamford in late 2013 and urges the city to reduce expenses rather than raise revenues, warning that continued increases will accelerate population loss from Connecticut. A second correspondent similarly calls for reducing the mill rate, arguing that residents are already financially stressed due to business closures and job losses during the economic crisis, and requesting that the city reduce expenditures to match the fiscal constraints residents are facing.
