CT SB00100

Transfers authority for bazaar and raffle permit applications from local police chiefs/chief executive officers to the Commissioner of Consumer Protection, effective October 1, 2014

Reverses fee distribution for Classes 1-3, 5, and 6 permits so the state retains the larger share instead of municipalities; Class 4 permit fees now go entirely to municipalities and Class 7 fees entirely to the state

Changes permit application requirement from "electors of such municipality" to "residents of this state" for designated members responsible for bazaars and raffles

Streamlines reporting procedures by requiring organizations to submit verified financial statements directly to the Commissioner of Consumer Protection rather than to local officials for forwarding

Permits certain organizations to conduct bazaars or raffles in municipalities other than the one granting the permit with written approval from the chief executive officer
