SB-817
AN ACT CONCERNING SENIOR CENTERS.
Primary Analyst: DD 3/3/21

OFA Fiscal Note
State Impact: None
Municipal Impact: None
Explanation
The bill makes several changes concerning municipal services for
seniors which have no fiscal impact. It establishes a working group to
develop a coordinated plan for municipal senior centers and services
and requires the Commission on Women, Children, Seniors, Equity,
and Opportunity to assist the working group. This has no fiscal impact
as PA 17-236 prohibits transportation allowances.
The bill also allows one or more municipalities to establish
multipurpose senior centers and expands the list of potential
appointees a municipality may select to serve as the municipal agent
for the elderly. This has no fiscal impact, as the bill does not require a
municipality to incur any cost in establishing a multipurpose senior
center.
