📰 News we're reading

• Happy New Year Avon, Now Pay Your Taxes (patch.com) — Avon residents who bought a vehicle between October 1, 2024, and October 1, 2025, face a pro-rated car tax bill due January 1, 2026, with a grace period until February 2. The same deadline applies to second-installment real estate taxes, and both can be paid online through the town’s tax collector website, helping residents avoid late fees as the new year begins.
