East Hartford, Conn., Code of Ordinances §§ 2-113e–g, 7-8a, 7-8f, 7-12 § 2-113f
Definitions.
Operative Text
Section 2-113f. Definitions. As used in section 2-113g: (1) “Commission” shall mean the Fair Rent and Quality Housing Commission; (2) “Fair Rent and Quality Housing Commission” shall be the commission established in section 2-113e of the East Hartford Code of Ordinances; (3) “seasonal basis” shall have the same meaning as in section 7-148b of the Connecticut General Statutes.
Section 2-113f of the East Hartford Code of Ordinances establishes the definitions that apply throughout Section 2-113g. It clarifies that references to the 'Commission' mean the Fair Rent and Quality Housing Commission, which is the body created under Section 2-113e, and that the term 'seasonal basis' carries the same meaning assigned to it by Connecticut General Statutes Section 7-148b. Definition provisions like this one ensure consistent interpretation of terms used elsewhere in the ordinance.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Section 2-113f sets the interpretive foundation for obligations that arise under Section 2-113g, so property owners and managers should understand that any reference to the 'Commission' in that section points to the Fair Rent and Quality Housing Commission established under Section 2-113e. Operators who rent on a 'seasonal basis' should consult Connecticut General Statutes Section 7-148b to confirm whether their rental arrangement falls within that defined category. Knowing these definitions helps ensure that compliance efforts are directed toward the correct regulatory body and applied to the correct rental types.

The body referred to as the 'Commission' throughout that section is the Fair Rent and Quality Housing Commission, created under Section 2-113e, and that is the entity tenants may interact with regarding rent-related concerns.
