Bridgeport's crackdown on out-of-state registered cars finds 5,000 in the first month
"And that is the program's ultimate goal — to identify people who are, intentionally or accidentally, failing to pay local car taxes because their wheels are not correctly registered in the city and get them to correct the situation.
Per Connecticut law, anyone who moves from or purchases a car from another state has 90 days to register their vehicle here, while those who relocate between municipalities are expected to update their registration information within 48 hours. And city officials suspect there are lots of households that have not done so, in some cases because, depending on the tax rates, it can be cheaper to remain registered elsewhere."

CT businesses who don't enroll employees in state retirement program to face fines
“Under previous law, the only consequence for companies that did not comply with these requirements was the possibility of lawsuits from the labor commissioner or state comptroller.
Now, businesses who have not enrolled employees will receive three notices, then face civil penalties for each year they are out of compliance for a period of at least 90 days. Maximum penalties depend on the size of the business, topping out at $1,500 for companies with more than 100 employees."
