AN ACT AUTHORIZING BONDS OF THE STATE FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF A SEWER AND WATER LINE IN THE TOWN OF FRANKLIN.

SB 164 authorizes up to $2 million in state bonds to fund a sewer and water line project in Franklin. The funds will be provided as a grant to Franklin by the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection for construction and connection to Norwich's system. This bill directly affects Franklin's local infrastructure planning and its service area, with the project aiming to expand municipal utility access. The key provision is the state bond authorization specifically for this infrastructure project, not general funding.
