WHAT WE'RE HEARING: The General Assembly may not make any changes to the two-year state budget this session. That means no new money for homelessness, affordable housing or anything else. At a time when so many are struggling with housing needs, that's exactly the wrong move.

"It’s time to build a more equitable society where each town in Connecticut takes on its 'fair share' of affordable housing and residents of various financial backgrounds can prosper together." What my brush with Connecticut's zoning laws taught me ctmirror.org/2024/05/28/ct-…

As this story makes clear, there was no secret meeting. There is no lack of transparency. Whatever happens next, the work on the Fair Share study continues, and we’re looking forward to working with the state. insideinvestigator.org/fair-share-adv…
