Substitute House Bill No. 5575, also known as Special Act No. 26-17, authorizes the Commissioner of Administrative Services to convey a parcel of state land to the city of Shelton for a total cost of $350,000, plus administrative expenses. The land, approximately 6.49 acres in size, is located at 784 River Road and is identified as Lot 38 on the city of Shelton Tax Assessor's Map 12. The conveyance is contingent upon the approval of the State Properties Review Board, which must complete its review within thirty days of receiving a proposed agreement from the Department of Administrative Services. Until the conveyance is finalized, the land will remain under the care and control of the Department of Administrative Services.

Additionally, the state will retain an easement on the parcel to allow staff and consultants from the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to maintain monitoring wells and conduct post-closure monitoring activities related to an adjacent closed landfill. The bill stipulates that the State Treasurer is responsible for executing any necessary deeds or instruments for the conveyance, which must include provisions to uphold the easement for monitoring purposes.
