History: P.A. 79-602 restated existing provisions; P.A. 09-213 replaced requirement that town clerk “cause to be entered upon the land records a notation that the lien and, if applicable, the lis pendens or notice of foreclosure, is discharged by operation of law” with requirement that town clerk “discharge such lien and, if applicable, the lis pendens or notice of foreclosure, by recording in the land records a discharge of lien and, if applicable, a discharge of lis pendens or notice of foreclosure” and made a technical change.
