AN ACT AUTHORIZING BONDS OF THE STATE TO EXTEND THE SPRAGUE STREETSCAPE PROJECT IN THE TOWN OF SPRAGUE.

SB 159 authorizes the state to issue up to $1 million in bonds to fund a grant for Sprague, Connecticut. The grant will help extend the Sprague Streetscape Project by upgrading all three municipal playgrounds, finishing streetlight upgrades to match Main Street standards (adding 10 new streetlights and school flashing lights), and installing an electronic bulletin board. This bill directly affects the Town of Sprague, providing specific funding for these physical improvements to public spaces. The state bond commission must approve the bond issuance under existing law, and the Department of Economic and Community Development will administer the grant.
