Gov. Ned Lamont announced Monday that he would veto a controversial housing bill, HB 5002, which passed the state legislature by narrow margins.

The omnibus bill attempted to address the state's housing shortage by requiring municipalities to set goals for affordable housing, prioritizing state aid to communities that build housing.

It also streamlined approval for so-called “middle housing,” defined as a building with two to nine units.

HB 5002 was considered the most significant housing bill to reach Lamont’s desk in seven years.

However, opponents said it went too far in centralizing power at the state level. 

Lamont, on Monday, said he wanted municipal leaders to take the lead in growing the amount of affordable housing in their towns and cities.
