In a dispatch from the Connecticut Forest and Parks Association, Eric Hammerling writes:

In the last hour of the legislative session, the Senate of the CT General Assembly passed H.B. 6557 ensuring that Municipalities will be better protected against frivolous lawsuits stemming from outdoor activities on 150,000+ acres of recreational lands.

HARTFORD — Lawmakers are considering a bill that would provide limited immunity from lawsuits to municipalities that open their land to the public for recreational use.
