Lovable Cat

Jewett City, CT
Hello--my owner passed away and I really need a great home to go to! I love people and other animals. I am currently being sheltered and fed, but need a new forever home and Love! I am an indoor/outdoor cat, don't know how old I am--maybe 5 to 8 ish? I was up to date with my vaccinations, but maybe should be updated? Please consider my adoption. BTW, I am originally from Moosup. Please message Paula if you would like to meet me! Thank you

Enjoyed a wonderful Roast Beef Dinner, thank you Friends of the Voluntown Public Library, who provided the free tickets for the dinner. (I am a publication consultant for the Newsletter.) To top it off, Just received a call, won a raffle for a Christmas Tree Olsen's Christmas Tree Farm!! Exciting!!

Micro Business Law and Legal Definition
Micro business is a very small business, smallest of all businesses. The majority of micro business companies are one-person enterprises. Moreover, these companies operate out of owner’s homes or a small executive suite office; and many of these companies have part-time help from a family member or friends. Micro business are conducted by trades people, professionals, doctors, designers, artists, writers, consultants, inventors, technicians, craftsmen, manufacturers, or workers from a variety of other disciplines. Micro business is often exempt from worker’s compensation, liability insurance, and certain professional licensing. Majority of these companies are not operating in this model to become rich, but rather to enjoy a superior level of autonomy and freedom that is typically unavailable to an employee.

About PJ’s Design

Established in 2002 as a Micro Business, hoping for a side income since I was employed full-time. The main services I offered included Business brochures, cards and related printed materials which I designed on the computer and sent to a commercial printer for completion. I also added the service of transferring VHS media to DVD (ie. Family videos.) I have created Publication layouts, such as Class Reunion materials, SubVet Anniversary Programs, and Newsletters such as “The Friends of the Voluntown Library” for which I consult on the layout and advertising and receive a free ad (no payment.) In no way was this ever a full-time business, nor was the Personal Property in question exclusively intended for business use only.

At the time I received my first Business Personal Property form, I consulted with the Assessor, who after discussing the nature of my business advised me to complete the form exactly the way I completed the most recent form (attached,) thus I was in a state of shock when I received the notice of increased assessment from $40 to $1610!

These days my office equipment consists of a Desk (gift 2002), chair (also a gift 2002) printer stand, computer purchased in 2006, printer purchased in 2010, (Receipts are attached.) Any supplies on hand would be left-overs from past projects (ie disks, paper.) Again, I must stress that when this equipment is used it is most likely not for business purposes. Perhaps I have even overstated the assessment amount on the Personal Property Declaration?

I have also attached a spread sheet which indicates the earnings enjoyed by PJ’s Design. 2016 $53.00, 2015 $0.00, etc. If any other documentation is required for the hearing, please let me know and I will gladly provide.

Respectfully,

Paula M. Jordan
Owner
