Bill > SB01306

This bill eliminates a specific funding provision within the Healthy Homes Fund related to housing assistance. Specifically, the bill removes language that would have allocated funding for grants to homeowners in the town of Hamden for foundation remediation or relocation assistance. The bill retains an existing provision that allows up to $1 million in funding for grants to homeowners with homes near the West River in the Westville section of New Haven and Woodbridge, who have experienced structural damage due to subsidence or water infiltration. The funding for this program comes from remittances transferred under section 38a-331, and the change will take effect on July 1, 2025. By removing the Hamden-specific funding language, the bill effectively narrows the scope of the Healthy Homes Fund's grant assistance to the West River area homeowners.
