The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5119, seeks to authorize the issuance of state bonds totaling up to six hundred thousand dollars. This funding is intended to support the Lyman Allyn Art Museum in New London by providing a grant-in-aid specifically for the installation of a new roof. The bill empowers the State Bond Commission to issue these bonds in accordance with existing statutes.

The primary goal of this legislation is to ensure that the valuable art housed within the Lyman Allyn Art Museum is protected and maintained in a safe environment. By facilitating the necessary repairs to the museum's roof, the bill aims to enhance the preservation of the museum's collection and support its ongoing operations.
