Plain English

Under Conn. Agencies Regs. § 8-37ee-809, housing entities that maintain waitlists are required to make those lists available for public inspection during normal business hours, or to provide copies upon request. This access is not unconditional — it is subject to any restrictions established under Connecticut General Statutes § 8-345d. The rule is designed to promote transparency in how applicants are placed on and move through housing waitlists.

For Property Managers

Under Conn. Agencies Regs. § 8-37ee-809, compliant operators generally maintain their waitlists in a format that can be readily shared or reviewed, and make them accessible to any requesting individual during regular office or business hours. Operators also stay informed of any limitations imposed by Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-345d that may restrict what information can be disclosed. Keeping clear records of inspection and copy requests is a common practice among operators seeking to demonstrate compliance with this provision.

For Tenants

Conn. Agencies Regs. § 8-37ee-809 gives any person the right to inspect a housing entity's waitlist during regular business hours or to request a copy of it. If access is denied or delayed without a basis in Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-345d, that may constitute a violation of this provision. Tenants and applicants who believe their access rights have been improperly restricted may consider contacting a local tenant-rights organization or the relevant Connecticut housing authority for guidance on how to raise the issue.
