Zoning Board of Appeals

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Beware of Ongoing Scam Attempts

What’s happening:
We’ve been made aware of fraudulent messages (via email) going out to applicants claiming to require additional fees for an application to be approved.

What you should know:
o The Town will never ask for payments via wire transfer.

o All email communications will come from our verified channels, such as landuse@salisburyct.us, or via OpenGov.com.

o If you receive any suspicious communication, please do not click on any links or provide any information. Instead, please reach out to us separately via a known channel to verify that the communication you received is legitimate.

What to do if you’re contacted:
1.     Do not respond.
2.     Take a screenshot or copy the message.
3.     Report it to us by emailing it to landuse@salisburyct.us

We take your security seriously and are actively working on protecting the Town from these scams. Please remain vigilant and contact us if you have any concerns.

Thank you for your continued trust.
