The proposed legislation, General Assembly Raised Bill No. 134, aims to establish two airport development zones in Connecticut, specifically in the towns of Windsor Locks, Suffield, East Granby, Windsor, and Plainville. The bill amends subsection (a) of section 32-75d of the general statutes, replacing the singular "zone" with "zones" to reflect the creation of two distinct areas. The first zone encompasses a series of census blocks in the aforementioned towns, while the second zone is designated for specific census blocks in the town of Plainville, as determined by the 2020 federal decennial census.

The bill repeals the existing language that only recognized one airport development zone and introduces new language to define the two zones clearly. The effective date for these changes is set for October 1, 2026. This initiative is part of a broader effort to promote economic development and enhance the infrastructure surrounding airports in Connecticut.
