The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5195, aims to amend title 12 of the general statutes to establish a tax credit for businesses that choose to install a meadow instead of a traditional lawn on their properties. This initiative is designed to encourage environmentally friendly landscaping practices among businesses, promoting biodiversity and sustainability.
The bill introduces new legal language that specifically outlines the creation of this tax credit, while there are no deletions from existing law mentioned in the text. The overall purpose of the legislation is to incentivize businesses to adopt meadows, which can provide ecological benefits compared to conventional lawns.
