AN ACT PROVIDING FOR OPTIONAL PAYMENT OF THE HEALTHY HOMES FUND SURCHARGE.

SB 339 makes the Healthy Homes Fund surcharge on certain homeowners insurance policies optional rather than mandatory. It directly affects homeowners who hold specific types of insurance policies covered under section 38a-331 of the general statutes. The bill eliminates the current requirement for these policyholders to pay the surcharge, allowing them to choose whether to pay it or not.
