Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8 § 8-116
Section 8-116 is repealed.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-116 has been formally repealed, meaning the statutory provision that once addressed occupancy by non-family units, construction design standards, and housing restricted to the elderly under that section no longer carries legal force in Connecticut. The repeal removes any rights, obligations, or restrictions that were previously established by § 8-116. Any rules or requirements that existed under this section must now be found, if at all, in other applicable statutes or regulations.

For Property Managers

Property owners and managers should be aware that Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-116, which previously governed certain occupancy and design requirements including elderly-restricted housing, is no longer in effect. Compliant operators generally review other current Connecticut statutes and local ordinances to determine what rules now apply to occupancy standards and housing design. Relying on § 8-116 as authority for any operational practice would be misplaced given its repeal.

For Tenants

Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-116, which once addressed occupancy rules and housing restricted to elderly residents, has been repealed and no longer provides a basis for asserting rights or protections under that section. Tenants who believe they have concerns related to the subject matter formerly covered by § 8-116 may wish to explore other Connecticut housing statutes or consult a tenant-rights organization for guidance on currently applicable law. Local rent boards or housing agencies may also be able to direct individuals to the provisions that now govern similar subject matter.
