Be it enacted by the Senate and

The Town of Wilton, having acted in compliance
with the provisions of Section 2-14 of the General Statutes concerning
the enactment of special legislation by the General Assembly, may
appropriate funds for and contract with the Georgetown Fire District
for fire protection services within the Wilton section of the Georgetown
Fire District. If the Town of Wilton enters into such a contract with
the Georgetown Fire District for any fiscal year, the Town of Wilton
may pay any fire district tax bills rendered by the Georgetown Fire
District for such fiscal year on property taxable within the Wilton
section of the Georgetown Fire District. Any appropriation for payment
of such fire district tax bills, or contract with the Georgetown Fire
District, and any payment of such fire district tax bills must be
approved by the legislative body of the Town of Wilton.
The Town of Wilton shall have the power, to
the same extent as any of its taxpayers within the Georgetown Fire
District, to challenge the validity of any, some or all of the tax
bills rendered by the Georgetown Fire District for property in the
Wilton section of said district based on improper assessment procedures,
failure to equalize assessments within the district, failure to properly
levy the taxes or any other basis on which the assessment and levy
of the taxes not conform to the correct procedure for a municipal
corporation to assess and levy property taxes.
