General Assembly Easily Approves School Construction Grants

Touted by lawmakers as the smallest school construction package in years, $160.5 million in grants for eight new school construction projects was passed with little debate Monday.  Two of the eight new schools will be built in Fairfield, and one each will be built in Bridgeport, Enfield, Norwalk, Simsbury, Middletown, and Newington. The bill, which now goes to Gov. Ned Lamont for his signature, approved a total of $271.7 million in state grant commitments for school construction projects.
