SB 342 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING LIABILITY FOR INJURIES OCCURRING IN A SKATEBOARD PARK OR DOG PARK MAINTAINED BY A MUNICIPALITY.

SB 342 reduces a municipality's legal liability for injuries occurring in publicly maintained skateboard parks or dog parks. It directly affects cities and towns that operate these recreational facilities by limiting their potential for lawsuits related to such injuries. The bill amends state laws to change how liability is assessed, making it harder for injured individuals to hold municipalities legally responsible. This policy change focuses on shifting responsibility away from local governments toward park users for their own safety.
