The General Assembly Raised Bill No. 7284 proposes the conveyance of a 1.98-acre parcel of state land, which includes the former Norwich State Hospital, to the town of Preston. This transfer will be executed by the Commissioner of Administrative Services on behalf of the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services, with the cost limited to the administrative expenses associated with the conveyance. The conveyance is contingent upon approval from the State Properties Review Board and is intended for use by the town for open space, recreational, or farmers' market purposes.

The bill includes specific conditions under which the parcel and its improvements would revert to the state if the town of Preston fails to utilize the land for the designated purposes, does not retain ownership, or leases any part of it. Additionally, the State Properties Review Board is required to complete its review within thirty days of receiving a proposed agreement, and the State Treasurer will be responsible for executing the necessary deed or instrument for the conveyance. The act is set to take effect upon passage and establishes a new section in the law regarding this conveyance.
