Property owners and managers operating in Glastonbury should be aware that ch. 13, art. VII § 13-81 ties local obligations directly to Connecticut's Lead Poisoning Prevention and Control Regulations (RCSA § 19a-111-1 et seq.) and related state statutes. Compliant operators generally familiarize themselves with both the town's article and the underlying state framework, since the local article is designed to reinforce—not replace—those state requirements. Staying current with both layers of regulation is a common practice among operators who manage properties subject to lead-paint rules.
