Mashantucket Tribe is largest taxpayer in town


The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation is once again the largest taxpayer in the town of Ledyard, Connecticut.

The tribe's properties in Ledyard were assessed at $32.1 million. Dow Chemical was second with $26.6 million.

The tribe is also among the top taxpayers in other towns but local leaders say they don't receive enough money to offset impacts from the tribe's casino. In addition to paying taxes, the tribe contributes 25 percent of slot machine revenue to the state.
