SB 143 Connecticut Senate · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT ENTITLING TOWNS TO FULL REIMBURSEMENT UNDER THE EXCESS COST GRANT.

SB 143 amends state law to require full reimbursement for special education costs from towns under the existing excess cost grant program. It directly affects towns that provide special education services by ensuring they receive 100% of eligible costs back, rather than partial reimbursement. The key provision updates Section 10-76g of the general statutes to eliminate current limitations on reimbursement amounts. This is a procedural change to the state’s funding mechanism, not a new program.
