AI Summary

This bill authorizes the State Bond Commission to issue up to $300,000 in state bonds during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026, to provide a grant to the New England Science and Sailing Foundation. The purpose of the grant is to help the foundation modify its facilities to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which is a federal law that requires public and private spaces to be physically accessible to people with disabilities. By providing this funding, the state aims to ensure that the foundation's facilities can be used by individuals with various physical abilities, potentially improving access to the organization's science and sailing programs for all community members. The bonds will be issued in accordance with existing state statutes, specifically section 3-20 of the general statutes, and the funds will be administered through the Department of Education.
