HB 5572 Connecticut House · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT CONVEYING A PARCEL OF STATE LAND TO THE TOWN OF WOODBURY.

This bill authorizes the transfer of approximately one acre of state-owned land to the Town of Woodbury for use as a commemorative memorial green. The parcel, currently part of a state highway right-of-way containing veterans monuments and Veterans Lane, will be conveyed at no cost to the town beyond administrative fees, subject to approval by the State Properties Review Board. The legislation includes conditions requiring the town to maintain the land for its intended memorial purpose, with provisions for the land to revert to state ownership if the town fails to use it appropriately, retains only part of the parcel, or leases it. The Department of Transportation retains responsibility for the land until the transfer is completed, with the State Treasurer handling the legal deed execution.
