Bloomfield, Conn., Code of Ordinances ch. 12, art. XI § 12-96
Appeals
Operative Text
(a) Any person aggrieved by any order or decision of the commission may appeal to the Superior Court for the Judicial District of Hartford-New Britain at Hartford, within thirty (30) days of the issuance of the written notice of the decision to the parties. Such notice shall include notice of the right to appeal, the court to which an appeal may be taken, and the time in which an appeal must be filed. Any such appeal shall be considered a privileged matter with respect to the order of trial as provided in C.G.S. § 7-148e. Unless otherwise directed by the commission or the court, the filing of an appeal shall not stay any order issued by the commission.
Under Bloomfield Code of Ordinances ch. 12, art. XI § 12-96, any person who disagrees with an order or decision issued by the commission has the right to challenge it in the Superior Court for the Judicial District of Hartford-New Britain at Hartford. The appeal must be filed within 30 days of receiving written notice of the decision, and that notice is required to spell out the right to appeal, the correct court, and the filing deadline. Importantly, filing an appeal does not automatically pause or 'stay' the commission's order unless the commission or the court specifically directs otherwise.

Property owners and managers subject to a commission order under Bloomfield Code of Ordinances ch. 12, art. XI § 12-96 should be aware that a compliant operator generally continues to comply with any commission order even while an appeal is pending, since the filing of an appeal does not automatically suspend the order. Operators who receive a written decision typically confirm that the notice includes the required information about appeal rights, the proper court, and the filing window. Keeping careful records of when written notice was received helps ensure that any appeal is filed within the 30-day window.
