AN ACT CONCERNING THE COMPOSITION OF MUNICIPAL TRAFFIC AUTHORITIES.
HB 5614 amends Connecticut law to prevent municipal traffic authorities from including police commissioners, the chief of police, or the superintendent of police on their boards. This bill directly affects local traffic authorities in Connecticut municipalities by changing their required composition. The key provision explicitly prohibits these specific police officials from serving on traffic authority boards, ensuring a separation between traffic management oversight and police leadership. The change clarifies that traffic authorities must be composed of other qualified members, not police department leadership.
