Mil Rate Reduction Petition March 2007 We, the undersigned homeowners and renters in New Haven petition the New Haven Board of Alderman to keep New Haven an affordable place to live with a significant reduction in the mil rate on Property Taxes. Major increases in energy rates coupled with new property assessments (often 200-300% increase) pose a severe economic threat to all those who live here. We petition the Board of Aldermen to take immediate action to reduce the mil Rate overall and the Mayor\'s proposed budget. (your New Haven address is important, please add it in comments)

Enough is enough. 425 Orange St. My assessment is double what the house is actually worth. Fix this.
