SB 764 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT INCREASING HOUSING DEVELOPMENT WITHIN ONE-HALF MILE OF PUBLIC TRANSIT STATIONS.

This bill requires municipalities to update their zoning regulations to allow denser housing development within a half-mile radius of public transit stations. It directly affects local governments that set zoning rules, mandating they permit higher density housing than currently allowed in those areas. The key provision amends state law to require this change in zoning standards, specifically targeting areas near transit stops. This policy aims to increase housing options near public transportation without altering transit services or infrastructure.
