Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-115a

(b) The commissioner shall have the right of inspection of any such project at any time.

(c) The commissioner may, for periods of up to one year, authorize a housing authority, municipal developer or nonprofit corporation to admit to such a project persons who are not less than fifty-five years of age and otherwise meet the eligibility requirements for the housing project. The commissioner may only grant such authority upon receipt from a housing authority, municipal developer or nonprofit corporation of an application approved by the chief executive officer of the municipality in which the housing authority, municipal developer or nonprofit corporation is located demonstrating (1) that the housing authority, municipal developer or nonprofit corporation is unable to attract an adequate number of elderly persons to occupy the project and (2) that the housing authority, municipal developer or nonprofit corporation (A) has published a notice, at least once each week during the thirty days preceding the submission of its application, in one or more newspapers having a substantial circulation in the municipality in which the housing project is located, indicating that units in such project are available and (B) has sent such a notice, at least thirty days preceding submission of its application, to each housing authority, municipal developer or nonprofit corporation operating an elderly housing project pursuant to this part and having fifty or more units. No person admitted to such a project pursuant to this subsection shall be evicted from or denied continued occupancy of such project solely because such person is less than sixty-two years of age.

(d) The commissioner is authorized to make orders and to adopt regulations in accordance with chapter 54 with respect to the development and the operation and management of such project or projects by housing authorities, municipal developers, nonprofit corporations and housing partnerships, and to determine the allocation of funds to meet the development costs of such project or projects, including administrative or other costs or expenses to be incurred by the state. Such regulations shall establish maximum income limits for admission to projects that reflect area median incomes, as determined by the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
