CT SB00338

Amends Section 8-30g(l) of Connecticut General Statutes to modify how municipalities earn housing unit-equivalent points toward affordable housing moratoriums, effective October 1, 2026

Prohibits awarding housing unit-equivalent points for dwelling units in set-aside developments that were subject to an affordable housing appeals process lasting more than six months and resulted in a finding that the commission failed to satisfy its burden of proof

Maintains existing point system where family units restricted to households at or below 80% of median income earn 1 point for ownership and 1.5 points for rental; units at 60% median income earn 1.5 points for ownership and 2 points for rental; units at 40% median income earn 2 points for ownership and 2.5 points for rental

Preserves moratorium eligibility thresholds requiring municipalities to accumulate points equal to 2% of all dwelling units or 75 points minimum (1.75% or 65 points for municipalities with final eligibility letters)
