Explanation 
The bill modifies a conveyance from SA 01-6 section 23 from the 
Department of Transportation to the town of Fairfield 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 parcels are sold, there would be a revenue gain to 
the Special Transportation Fund equal to the selling price of the parcel 
within the next five years (the asset was most recently valued at 
$846,700, though there is no requirement in the bill to sell for fair 
market value). If not sold, the state would regain use of the asset. 
The modifications of the conveyance require the town of Fairfield to  2021SB-01111-R000768-FN.DOCX 	Page 2 of 2 
 
 
lose use of the asset, whether through sale in the next five years or 
through reversion to state control after five years.
