Senate Bill No. 470, also known as Public Act No. 26-118, introduces several technical and minor revisions to the government administration statutes. Notably, it amends section 3-61b to clarify that property held under a funeral service contract will be considered payable upon the death of a beneficiary, reaching the age of 110, or 75 years after the contract execution. Additionally, it updates section 10a-151i to require that contracts entered into or amended by the Board of Regents for Higher Education comply with nondiscrimination provisions, replacing the previous deadline of July 1, 2026, with the effective date of the section.

The bill also revises compensation guidelines for conservators and guardians in section 45a-594, specifying that compensation shall not exceed 5% of the gross income to the estate and that the Probate Court may authorize additional compensation for extraordinary services. Furthermore, it modifies the notification process in section 45a-649 for personal service of citations, ensuring that if personal service cannot be reasonably effected, notice can be given by registered or certified mail or publication. The bill repeals outdated legal language, such as references to the "court of probate," replacing it with "Probate Court," and makes other minor adjustments to improve clarity and compliance with current laws.
