Hamden, Conn., Mun. Code Ch. 152 § 152.25
Conference granted to owner
Operative Text
The owner,. occupant or other person in charge of the structure shall be granted a conference on the matter upon his request, as soon as practicable, but the conference shall in no case stay the abatement or correction of the emergency. (Adopted 9-5-67)
Under Hamden Ch. 152 § 152.25, any owner, occupant, or person responsible for a structure has the right to request a conference with the relevant authority regarding an emergency housing matter. That conference must be scheduled as soon as practicable after the request is made. However, the right to a conference does not pause or delay any required emergency abatement or correction work — remediation proceeds regardless of whether a conference has been requested or scheduled.

Hamden Ch. 152 § 152.25 gives property owners and managers the right to request a conference when an emergency housing matter arises. A compliant operator typically submits such a request promptly and in writing to preserve a clear record, while simultaneously ensuring that any required emergency abatement or correction work continues without interruption. Requesting a conference does not relieve the owner of the obligation to address the emergency on the timeline set by enforcement authorities.

Under Hamden Ch. 152 § 152.25, occupants of a structure also hold the right to request a conference regarding an emergency housing matter — this right is not limited to owners alone. Importantly, any such conference request does not halt emergency abatement or correction, meaning that urgent repairs or remediation should still move forward. Tenants who have questions about how this provision applies to their situation may wish to consult a local tenant-rights organization or the Hamden housing authority for general guidance.
