Sec. 8-119d. Declaration of policy. It is found and declared that there is a growing
segment of the older population who, because of increasing age, infirmity and other
functional limitations, are not able to perform all personal and household functions
associated with complete independent living. Most of these people do not require the
extent of care or supervision provided in a nursing home or other care institution. However, many of them do have need for specially designed housing and living environments
that provide the supportive services necessary to remain semi-independent in a residential setting. It is further found and declared that congregate housing is one solution to
meeting this need for specialized housing and services.
