SB 1180 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING TAX CREDITS FOR TRANSIT-ORIENTED HOUSING DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS.

SB 1180 would create tax credits for individuals and businesses developing housing projects directly accessible to public transportation. Developers building such housing near transit stops (like bus or train stations) would receive financial incentives through reduced state income tax liability. The bill specifically requires housing to be "directly accessible" by public transit to qualify for the credits. This policy aims to encourage new housing construction that supports transit use, potentially increasing affordable housing options near transit corridors.
