City Clerk Patricia C. Horvath said property owners can sign up for Fraud Alert to receive alerts whenever a document, such as a deed, mortgage or lien, is recorded under their name.

“This is an easy way for homeowners to have peace of mind,” Horvath said.
Horvath noted that because other West Haven property owners may share the same name, “this new tool adds additional protection to your property.”
Property owners can view documents online or in the clerk’s office on the first floor of City Hall, 355 Main St.
