None Explanation The bill conveys several parcels of land, totaling 1.5 acres, from the Department of Transportation (DOT) to the Connecticut Municipal Development Authority (CMDA).
This results in a transfer of assets from DOT to CMDA, with CMDA paying the fair market value and administrative costs of the transfer.
DOT would lose use of the asset and gain revenues equal to the fair market value of the property to the STF.
CMDA would gain use of the asset and would pay fair market value of the property and the administrative costs of the conveyance.
