HB 5220 Connecticut House · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT INCREASING THE COMPENSATION OF STATE PROPERTIES REVIEW BOARD MEMBERS.

HB 5220 increases the State Properties Review Board's membership from six to eight members, effective July 1, 2026, with appointments split between majority and minority legislative leaders. The bill raises the annual compensation for the board chair from $30,000 to $45,000 and for other members from $25,000 to $40,000. These changes aim to expand the board's capacity and adjust pay rates, while maintaining existing rules requiring expertise in relevant fields and prohibiting conflicts of interest.

MINOR
The bill was converted from a 'Raised Bill' to a 'GAE Joint Favorable Substitute,' indicating it has been reviewed and approved by the Legislative Council. The substantive text remains focused on increasing the State Properties Review Board's membership from six to eight members and raising their compensation, with no changes to the core policy or funding amounts.
TECHNICAL

The bill title was updated to reflect that it only increases compensation rather than membership, likely due to the Legislative Council's recommendation to remove the membership expansion provision.

The repealed section was changed from subsection (a) and (b) to only subsection (b), suggesting the membership expansion text in subsection (a) was removed or deemed unnecessary.

A new statement from the Legislative Commissioners was added, explaining that extraneous text was deleted to accurately reflect the subsection.
