The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6823, seeks to amend title 7 of the general statutes to prohibit members of municipal legislative bodies from entering into contracts with their respective municipalities. Specifically, the bill targets contracts for services related to the construction, renovation, or repair of municipal property.
The intent of this legislation is to prevent potential conflicts of interest and ensure transparency in municipal dealings. By prohibiting such contracts, the bill aims to uphold the integrity of municipal legislative bodies and safeguard public trust in local governance.
