Bill Summary
To increase the award of housing unit-equivalent points for elderly units from one-half to one housing unit-equivalent point to incentivize the construction of such units.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to modify Section 8-30g of Connecticut's general statutes by changing how housing unit-equivalent points are awarded for elderly housing units. Specifically, the bill increases the point allocation for elderly units that are restricted to individuals and families earning 80% or less of the median income from one-half (0.5) to one (1) housing unit-equivalent point. The purpose of this change is to create a more attractive incentive for developers to construct affordable housing units specifically designed for elderly residents. By increasing the point value, the bill aims to encourage more construction of senior-focused housing that serves low and moderate-income populations, potentially helping to address housing accessibility and affordability for older residents with limited financial resources.
