AN ACT AUTHORIZING BONDS OF THE STATE FOR REPAIRS AND RENOVATIONS FOR CATHOLIC CHARITIES, INC. IN THE TOWN OF NEWINGTON.

HB 5118 authorizes the state to issue up to $2,770,075 in bonds to fund repairs and renovations for Catholic Charities, Inc.'s facility at 652 Willard Avenue in Newington. The funds, managed by the Department of Economic and Community Development, will be provided as a grant-in-aid to Catholic Charities specifically for upgrading the building and grounds. This directly affects Catholic Charities, Inc., which uses the facility to provide services for persons with intellectual disabilities. The bill creates a concrete funding mechanism for facility improvements without altering existing service programs.
