The first stop in The Connecticut Mirror Policy Pairings Series is at Shebeen Brewery in Wolcott. When a legislative-created panel began looking at Connecticut's local and state tax structure in late 2014, the 16-person committee set out to examine the income, business, consumer and property tax systems in Connecticut. Hear from the panel co-chairman, the current legislative angle and the business perspective regarding the long-term future of taxes in the state. Each ticket entitles you to:
