23 Sue Trumbull Over Tax Assessment

The suits follow the recent revaluation.

Numerous businesses or building owners, including both malls in Trumbull, are suing to reduce their tax assessments.

Town officials have said businesses will shoulder more of the tax burden. Most of the town's real estate values fell about 20 percent after this year's revaluation, but the residential side lost more value.

Some of the businesses that sued already challenged their taxes before their assessment to the Board of Assessment Appeals.
