The bill, General Assembly Raised Bill No. 1306, aims to eliminate specific funding provisions from the Healthy Homes Fund. It proposes to repeal subdivision (1) of subsection (a) of section 8-446 of the general statutes and replace it with a new provision that allocates funding of up to one million dollars for grants-in-aid to homeowners in the Westville section of New Haven and Woodbridge. This funding is intended for homeowners whose properties have suffered structural damage due to subsidence or water infiltration, specifically those near the West River and the Yale Golf Course.
Additionally, the bill removes the previous funding provisions that allocated money for the remediation of structurally deficient foundations in owner-occupied units and the relocation of owners in condominium associations located in Hamden. The effective date for these changes is set for July 1, 2025. Overall, the bill seeks to streamline the funding process by focusing on specific areas of need while eliminating broader funding provisions that are no longer deemed necessary.
