AN ACT PROHIBITING MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES FROM SERVING ON MUNICIPAL LEGISLATIVE BODIES.
HB 6822 prohibits municipal employees - including those working for city departments or school boards - from serving on local legislative bodies like city councils or town meetings. This bill directly affects current and future municipal employees who might seek seats on these governing boards. The key mechanism is an amendment to state law (title 7 of the general statutes) that explicitly bans this dual role. The bill's purpose is to separate municipal employment from legislative decision-making, with no additional provisions or exceptions specified.
