AN ACT EXPLORING A POTENTIAL SALE OF THE NEW LONDON STATE PIER.

HB 6697 directs Connecticut's Commissioner of Transportation and the Connecticut Port Authority to explore potential buyers for the New London State Pier. It requires identifying purchasers who can privately repair the pier, have commercial pier operation experience, and generate state tax revenue. The bill does not sell the pier but initiates a process to assess if a sale is feasible. This affects the state's management of the pier and potential future revenue streams.
