Explanation 
The bill conveys a specified parcel of land totaling approximately 
0.6 acres from the Department of Transportation to the town of 
Windsor and specifies that the town must sell said parcels for 
economic development purposes within five years and deposit the 
proceeds of the sale in the Special Transportation Fund. 
To the extent the parcel is sold by the town within five years, there 
is anticipated to be a revenue gain to the Special Transportation Fund 
equal to the selling price of the parcels (most recently valued at  2021HB-06680-R01-FN.DOCX 	Page 2 of 2 
 
 
$131,000) less the cost of any appraisals and the state would lose use of 
the asset. The state would retain rights to access the parcel for specified 
activities.  
The town of Windsor would gain temporary use of an asset until 
sold or it reverted to state custody and would pay the administrative 
costs of the conveyance. 
The land conveyance is subject to the review and approval of the 
State Properties Review Board.  
House "A" alters the original bill by requiring the sale of the property 
by the town of Windsor within five years and requiring the proceeds 
of the sale, less the cost of appraisal, to be deposited in the Special 
Transportation Fund which results in the fiscal impact described 
above.
