Where the proposed modification will substantially change the development plan as previously approved, the modification must be approved in the same manner as the development plan.(b) If after three years from the date of approval of the development plan the development agency has been unable to transfer by sale or lease at fair market value or fair rental value, as the case may be, the whole or any part of the real property acquired in the project area to any person in accordance with the project plan, and no grant has been made for such project pursuant to section 8-195, the municipality may, by vote of its legislative body, abandon the project plan and such real property may be conveyed free of any restriction, obligation or procedure imposed by the plan but shall be subject to all other local and state laws, ordinances or regulations, including, but not limited to, any offer of sale required under subsection (c) of section 8-193.(1967, P.A. 760, S. 16; P.A. 80-41; P.A. 81-415, S. 3, 4; P.A. 07-141, S. 12.)History: P.A. 80-41 substituted “development” for “redevelopment”; P.A. 81-415 added Subsec.

2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 8 - Zoning, Planning, Housing and Economic and Community Development|Chapter 133 - Housing, Redevelopment and Urban Renewal and Human Resource Development Programs|Section 8-201 - Declaration of policy.

 It is found and declared that improvement of the conditions and quality of urban life is one of the most serious responsibilities facing this state. The persistence of slums and blight; the critical need for additional and improved housing and community facilities and services arising from rapid expansion of the state's urban population; the inadequacy of sites for industrial and commercial growth; the concentration of persons of low income in the older urban areas of the state; the persistence of poverty, unemployment, underemployment, educational deprivation, crime and delinquency, and physical and mental illness; all these have resulted in a marked deterioration of the quality of the environment and the lives of large numbers of Connecticut citizens, while the state as a whole prospers. It is further found and declared that the municipalities of this state do not have adequate resources to deal effectively with these physical, economic, and human resource problems and that financial and technical assistance by the state, in addition to that now authorized, and the granting of new powers and authority to municipalities, are essential to enable the municipalities to plan, develop and conduct physical, economic and human resource programs for effective community development. It is further found and declared that the accomplishment of these objectives requires effective concentration and coordination of federal, state, regional and local public and private efforts and resources and that such concentration and coordination of efforts can best be achieved through the creation of an Office of Policy and Management.(1967, P.A. 522, S. 1; P.A. 77-614, S. 590, 609, 610; P.A. 78-303, S. 119, 136.)History: P.A. 77-614 substituted office of policy and management for department of community affairs, effective January 1, 1979, and in Sec. 609 repealed section; P.A. 78-303 removed section from repeal provision in Sec. 609 of P.A. 77-614.
