WINDSOR — The town’s grand list of taxable property grew by $246.2 million in 2022, mostly because of new construction, and an increase in the number of vehicles and equipment installed at the Amazon facility on Kennedy Road, Town Assessor Lawrence LaBarbera said.

Personal property, which is primarily business equipment and a fair indicator of a town’s economic health, saw the biggest spike, increasing by 30.17% for a total of $591 million.

That company’s personal property account went up by $131.5 million. The next closest change was from IBM Credit LLC, which saw an increase of $6.7 million in personal property.

According to the state Department of Motor Vehicles, the number of vehicles in Windsor grew by 568 for a total of 27,153, which LaBarbera said is commercial fleet vehicles being located in town.

LaBarbera also noted that the new pricing guide from J.D. Power, a data analytic and consumer insight company, reflects higher costs of new and used vehicles than in previous years.

The top 20 taxpayers in Windsor are responsible for just over $1 billion of the net grand list. Topping the list is Amazon with a net value of $324.9 million.

New to the list is Scannell Properties with a net value of $25.6 million. The property at 1190 Kennedy Road includes two warehouses on 40.8 acres of land, which was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission in July 2021.

Shenzhen (Chinese: pinyin: Mandarin pronunciation: Sham Chun, is a major sub-provincial city and one of the special economic zones of China. The city is located on the east bank of the Pearl River estuary on the central coast of southern province of Guangdong, bordering Hong Kong to the south, Dongguan to the north, and Huizhou to the northeast. With a population of 17.56 million as of 2020, Shenzhen is the third most populous city by urban population in China after Shanghai and Beijing.technology, research, manufacturing, business and economics, finance, tourism and transportation, and the Port of Shenzhen is the world"s fourth busiest container port. Shenzhen is classified as a Large-Port Megacity, the largest type of port-city in the world.

Shenzhen roughly follows the administrative boundaries of Bao"an County, which was established since imperial times. The southern portion of Bao"an County was seized by the British after the Opium Wars and became Hong Kong, while the village of Shenzhen was situated on the border. Due to the completion of a train station that was the last stop on the Mainland Chinese section of the railway between Guangzhou and Kowloon, Shenzhen"s economy grew and became a market town and later a city by 1979, absorbing Bao"an County for the next decade.

In the early 1980s, economic reforms introduced by Deng Xiaoping resulted in the city becoming the first special economic zone of China due to its close proximity to Hong Kong, attracting foreign direct investment and migrants searching for opportunities. In thirty years, the city"s economy and population boomed and has since emerged as a hub for technology, international trade, and finance. It is the home to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, one of the largest stock exchanges in the world by market capitalization and the Guangdong Free-Trade Zone. Shenzhen is ranked as an Alpha- (global first-tier) city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network. Its nominal GDP has surpassed neighboring cities of Guangzhou and Hong Kong and is now among the top ten cities with the largest economies in the world. Shenzhen also has the eighth most competitive and largest financial center in the world, the eighth-most Fortune Global 500 headquarters of any city in the world, fifth-highest number of billionaires of any city in the world, the second largest number of skyscrapers of any city in the world, the 28th largest scientific research output of any city in the world, and several notable educational institutions, such as Shenzhen University, Southern University of Science and Technology, and Shenzhen Technology University.

The oldest evidence of humans in the area on which Shenzhen was established dates back during the mid-Neolithic period.Nantou and Dapeng, which was built on the area that is now Shenzhen, established more than 600 years ago.Hakka people also have a history in Shenzhen since 300 years ago when they first immigrated.

In 214 BC, when Emperor Qin Shi Huang unified China under the Qin Dynasty, the area went under the jurisdiction of the established Nanhai Commandery, one of the three commanderies that were set up in Lingnan, and was assimilated into Zhongyuan culture.Eastern Jin administration split up Nanhai and established a new Dongguan Commandery[zh] (东官郡).Sui administration merged the region back into Nanhai. In 757, the Tang administration renamed the county Dongguan, and moved its seat to what is now Dongguan city, although a military garrison remained.

During the Song Dynasty, Nantou and the surrounding area became an important trade hub for salt and spices in the South China Sea.Yuan Dynasty. In the early Ming era, Chinese sailors of a fleet would go to a Mazu temple in Chiwan (in present-day Nanshan District) to pray as they go to Nanyang (Southeast Asia). The Battle of Tunmen, when the Ming won a naval battle against invading Portuguese, was fought south of Nantou.Hong Kong. Xin"an County"s economy primarily was based on the production and trade of salt, tea, spices, and rice.

To prevent a rebellion from Ming loyalists under Zheng Chenggong, better known as Koxinga, on the Chinese coast, the recently established Qing administration resettled coastal residents inland and re-organized coastal counties.Xin"an County lost two-thirds of its territory to the neighboring Dongguan County and was later incorporated into Dongguan in 1669, though Xin"an was restored about 15 years later, in 1684. After the Qing dynasty was defeated by the United Kingdom in the First and Second Opium Wars, Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula were separated from Xin"an and ceded to the British in the Treaty of Nanking and the Convention of Peking. On 21 April 1898, the Qing government signed a "Special Article for the Exhibition of Hong Kong"s Borders" with the United Kingdom, and leased the New Territories from Xin"an to the United Kingdom for 99 years. Xin"an was briefly occupied by a British force under the command of Henry Arthur Blake, the governor of Hong Kong, for half a year in 1899.

In response to the Wuchang Uprising in 1911, Xin"an residents rebelled against the local Qing administration and successfully overthrew them.Kowloon–Canton Railway (KCR) was opened to the public, and the last stop of the Chinese side, Shenzhen Railway Station, had opened in Shenzhen, helping the town"s economy and opened Shenzhen up to the world.Republic of China administration renamed Xin"an County back to Bao"an County to prevent confusion from another county of the same name in Henan Province.Canton–Hong Kong strike, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions set up a reception station for strike workers in Hong Kong in Shenzhen.Chen Jitang and his family established several casinos in Shenzhen, the largest of which being Shumchun Casino.KCR"s passenger traffic to and from Shenzhen.

In 1953, four years after the founding of the People"s Republic of China, the Bao"an County government decided to move to Shenzhen, since the town was closer to the KCR and had a larger economy than Nantou.a huge influx of refugees trying to escape to Hong Kong from the upheavals that were occurring in mainland China, and a range from 100,000

In January 1978, a Central Inspection Team sent by the State Council investigated and established the issue of creating a foreign trade port in Bao"an County.Zhuhai into commodity export bases. In August 1978, the Huiyang District Committee reported to the Provincial Committee on the "Report on the Request for the Change of Bao"an County to Shenzhen". On 18 October, the Standing Committee of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee decided to change Bao"an County into Bao"an City and to turn it into a medium-level prefecture-level city with a foreign trade base. The Huiyang District Committee and the Bao"an County Committee, however, defended the change to rename Bao"an County to Shenzhen, claiming that people in the world know more about Shenzhen and its port than they know about Bao"an County.

On 23 January 1979, the Guangdong provincial administration and the district of Huiyang announced their proposal to rename Bao"an County to Shenzhen and was approved and put into effect by the State Council on March 5 of that year.Luohu, Nantou, Songgang, Longhua, Longgang and Kuiyong. On 31 January 1979, the Central Committee of the Communist Party approved a plan to establish the Shekou Industrial Zone in Shenzhen with the purpose "to lead domestic, overseas, and diversified operations, industrial and commercial integration, and trading" based on the systems of that of Hong Kong and Macau.China Merchants Group under Yuan Geng"s leadership and was to become the first export processing industrial zone in mainland China.

At the beginning of April 1979, the Standing Committee of Guangdong Province discussed and proposed to the Central Committee to set up a "trade cooperation zone" in Shenzhen, Zhuhai, and Shantou.special economic zones (SEZ) in Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Shantou, and Xiamen.

In May 1980, the Central Committee designated Shenzhen as the first SEZ in China,paramount leader Deng Xiaoping as part of China"s "reform and opening-up" reforms which were set up a year previously.market capitalism within a community guided by the ideals of "socialism with Chinese characteristics".Standing Committee of the National People"s Congress (NPC) approved the "Regulations of the Guangdong Special Economic Zone."

In March 1981, Shenzhen was promoted to a sub-provincial city.Chinese: 二线关).city under separate state planning[zh] (计划单列市), meaning that the city can implement policies that are different from those in the national plan, and was given the right of provincial-level economic administration.

In December 1990, under the authority of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the Shenzhen Stock Exchange was established to provide a platform for centralized securities trading.Shenzhen Guesthouse Hotel in Shenzhen was home to the Provisional Legislative Council and Provisional Executive Council of Hong Kong in preparation for the handover of Hong Kong in 1997.APEC China 2001 on 26 May 2001 in its southern manufacturing center and port.

On 18 August 2019, the central government in Beijing unveiled reform plans covering economical, social, and political sectors of Shenzhen, intending to have the SEZ be a model city for cities in China and the world to follow.

The urban area of Shenzhen in 2005, with the New Territories of Hong Kong can be seen in the bottom. Notice the land reclamation in the western parts of the city left of Shenzhen Bay. The land in the future would result in the rise of the Nanshan District"s cityscape for the next ten years.

Shenzhen is located within the Pearl River Delta, bordering Hong Kong to the south, Huizhou to the north and northeast, Dongguan to the north and northwest. Lingdingyang and Pearl River to the west and Mirs Bay to the east and roughly 100 kilometres (62 mi) southeast of the provincial capital of Guangzhou.

Over 160 rivers or channels flow through Shenzhen. There are 24 reservoirs within the city limits with a total capacity of 525 million tonnes.Shenzhen River, Maozhou River and Longgang River.

Shenzhen is surrounded by many islands. Most of them fall under the territory of neighbouring areas such as Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and Huiyang District, Huizhou. But there are several islands under Shenzhen"s jurisdiction, such as Nei Lingding Island, Dachan Island (Tai Shan Island), Xiaochan Island, Mazhou, Laishizhou, Zhouzai and Zhouzaitou. (See List of islands in Shenzhen)

Although Shenzhen is situated about a degree south of the Tropic of Cancer, due to the Siberian anticyclone it has a warm, monsoon-influenced, humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cwa) though it is fairly close to a Tropical one. Winters are mild and relatively dry, due in part to the influence of the South China Sea, and frost is very rare; it begins dry but becomes progressively more humid and overcast. However, fog is most frequent in winter and spring, with 106 days per year reporting some fog.

Like virtually all governing institutions in mainland China, Shenzhen has a parallel party-government system,Party Committee Secretary, officially termed the Communist Party of China Shenzhen Municipal Committee Secretary, outranks the Mayor.

Despite being a sub-provincial city, Shenzhen as a SEZ still wields a lot of autonomy from the central government.National People"s Congress (NPC) in 1981 granted legislative powers to Shenzhen and other Special Economic Zones, giving the city the privilege to make its own laws and regulations.Standing Committee of the NPC also granted Shenzhen voted and passed the "Decision on Authorizing the Shenzhen Municipal People"s Congress and its Standing Committee and the Shenzhen Municipal People"s Government to respectively formulate laws and regulations for implementation in the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone" in order to give fully strengthen Shenzhen"s legislative powers without interference from the central government.

There were several cases of high-ranking Shenzhen officials that were arrested on charges relating to corruption. In December 2002, the Shenzhen People"s Intermediate Court sentenced Zhao Yucun, former Commissioner of Shenzhen Customs, to life imprisonment for taking bribes of 9 million RMB.Xu Zongheng to the death penalty with a two-year reprieve for accepting bribes up to US$5.4 million.

Shenzhen was originally Bao"an County. On 5 March 1979, the State Council of the People"s Republic of China dissolved the county and set up the city of Shenzhen in its place initially with six districts: Luohu (罗湖), Nantou (南头), Songgang (松岗), Longhua (龙华), Longgang (龙岗), and Kuiyong (葵涌), with the seat based in Luohu. In October 1981, Bao"an County was re-established, with its region now based outside Shenzhen. In June 1983, the districts were dissolved and re-established instead as five management areas (管理区): Shekou (蛇口; south-west Shenzhen), Nantou (南头; west Shenzhen), Shangbu (上步; central Shenzhen), Luohu (罗湖; east-central Shenzhen), and Shatoujiao (沙头角; far-east Shenzhen).Chinese: 二线关), which consisted of barbed wire and checkpoints between the city and the rest of China.

In January 1990, the city merged Shekou Management Area and Nantou Management Area to form the Nanshan District, renamed Shangbu Management Area to the Futian District, and merged Luohu Management Area and Shatoujiao Management Area to form the Luohu District. In December 1992, Bao"an County was dissolved again, with its area taken by Shenzhen and split into two new districts: Bao"an District and Longgang District, though economic privileges within special economics zones did not pertain to them as they were outside the second line border. At this point, Shenzhen has five districts: Luohu, Futian, Nanshan, Bao"an, and Longgang. In March 1998, Shenzhen"s government created the Yantian District from the eastern portions of the Luohu District (the original area of the Shatoujiao Management District), and within the second line border.guannei (关内; "within the border") while districts that are outside the second line and do not have special economic privileges such as Bao"an and Longgang are referred to as guanwai (关外; "outside the border").guanwai: Guangming New District in August 2007 and Pingshan New District in June 2009.
