HB 5357 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT REPEALING THE PASSPORT TO THE PARKS PROGRAM.

HB 5357 repeals the "Passport to the Parks" program, which previously required an additional fee for access to Connecticut state parks. It shifts funding for state parks from this dedicated program to the General Fund, eliminating the separate park access fee. This change aims to reduce motor vehicle licensing fees while making park funding more transparent. The bill directly affects all visitors to Connecticut state parks by removing the additional fee required under the repealed program.
