programs assisted or supervised by state housing agencies to promote fair housing.
(a) Each entity participating in any program administered by a housing agency, as defined in section 8-37aa, under this title shall have an affirmative duty to promote fair
housing in each housing development that is assisted or supervised under any provision
of this title.
(b) Any entity applying for financial assistance under any program administered
by a housing agency established by this title shall submit an affirmative fair housing
marketing plan to such housing agency for its approval. Such plan shall have provisions

high concentrations of minority populations. The housing agency shall periodically
review each plan to assure that to the extent practicable such an applicant pool is created
and may require that a plan be revised by the entity submitting it.
