What is the 'Healthy Homes Fund Surcharge'?

12/28/2018

Beginning in January 1, 2019, Connecticut homeowners will see a $12 increase in their homeowner's policy. The Healthy Homes Fund Surcharge was passed by the Connecticut Legislature (CT HB05209) to raise as much as $100 million in the next 10 years mainly to assist Connecticut homeowners with crumbling foundations. The legislation is set to expire on December 31, 2029.

The surcharge is not a premium and applies to policies on residential dwellings with four or fewer units and on condominiums. Renters policies are exempt.

The bulk of the money collected in the Healthy Homes Fund Surcharge will be used for grants-in-aid to homeowners with homes located in the immediate vicinity of the West River in the Westville section of New Haven and Woodbridge for structurally damaged homes due to subsidence and to homeowners with homes abutting the Yale Golf Course in the Westville section of New Haven for damage to such homes from water infiltration or structural damage due to subsidence. The fund will also go toward programs designed to reduce health and safety hazards in residential dwellings in Connecticut such as lead, radon and other contaminants or conditions and pay for the removal, remediation, abatement of these contaminants.

June 2025 UPDATE: The state-created captive insurer handling Connecticut homeowners’ claims for crumbling foundations is in line for another $100 million in bond funding in the biennial budget now awaiting Gov. Ned Lamont’s approval.
Lawmakers are promising $25 million in each of the upcoming fiscal years in what should be the last appropriations needed, according to officials at the Connecticut Foundation Solutions Indemnity Co. (CFSIC)
The insurer’s superintendent, Michael Maglaras, has said he does not intend to ask for any more funding for CFSIC beyond the fiscal year ending June 30, 2030. By then, the “vast majority of this crisis will be behind us, and that it will be time to wind down CFSIC’s operations by the end of 2031,” he wrote In a February report.
Maglaras estimates that by June 30, 2030, there could about 725 new claimants that will require a minimum of $100 million in funding. That would bring the total number of CFSIC claimants since it began underwriting in 2019 to between 3,200 and 3,700.

The bulk of the money will go towards the crumbling foundations in eastern ct.

Let the owners of those homes deal with it from their own pockets, or hire contingency based lawyers (of which there are many of) to litigate the matters in court and recover monetary damages from parties responsible for it. If there are no liable parties then tough on those homeowners. Why am I forced to be 'my brothers keeper'? I've got plenty of things in my own family life that I need to spend MY money on. Sure as hell don't need politicians passing laws like these that FORCE the taking on my money. Dems in this part of the US are just insane with their power greed.

Are you really that selfish and really bothered by $12 that actually goes to help your fellow Americans? its $1 a month. that's enough to affect your finances? I understand the being forced to do it is not cool but its for fellow Citizens going through a tough time. If their insurance takes care of it, you and I will see greater than $12 increase in our policy. you are very shortsighted and did I say selfish?

Mark

It’s not greed! The $12 cost is small but what next and how much! Let the far left robbers get a Fed Grant to fix these foundations not expecting the homeowners of Ct to pay for faulty workmanship.
They going up on auto insurance when they manufacture a bad car next?

If you want to spend your money on helping someone, that is very kind and admirable. But in my opinion, forcing other people to spend their money to help someone is similar to robbing them and giving their things away. Selling a home in an area that will have inevitable water damage is tough, which is why they would have to lower the price of the home. They can use that savings to repair their houses, not my savings.

Hi Dee, A different perspective. The people who bought the properties likely got them at lower than market value (wonder how many of them might be politicians, or friends/relatives of politicians), and now are expecting us to bring up the property value. And even if not and why should we be expected to pay for their judgement. No one is reimbursing me for decisions I have made in the past - I own the good and the bad of my decisions. With respect to being to selfish to help, we donate much to charities - but those are OUR choices, not something some far removed politician decides in order to benefit themselves. It's very easy to spend other peoples money. Finally between the surcharge being removed after all the needed issues have been "resolved" or increasing the rate for an expanding "need" - I know where I bet the house (including my Healthy Homes tax).

It bothers me to read this article. I learned about this after looking over my mother's homeowner insurance bill and was wondering what is this Healthy Home Fund? This should be for those that live in the area(s) that might be affected. Or have those individuals with an umbrella policy. It annoys me - a lot. I live in Dallas, Texas, it is recommended we have flood insurance if you lived by a flood potential area. Not to mention hail and tornado. So why not have those individuals do something similar. That is why I am glad I do not live in CT. Greedy politicians in that state.

A question came up that we could not answer to one of our customers who paid the $12. What happens if they sell their current home that was charged the $12 and then buy a new home. The new home requires a new insurance policy and the insured, within 12 months would have had to pay $24?? How is that money refunded to the Insured?? or are they required to pay a second time and why?

10/25/2021 07:29:11 pm

Oh, I am sure it is non-refundable or credited and the new policy will collect another $12.

Foundations used to be covered by insurance companies in the State of Connecticut. However, when the issue arose with the bad mixture of cement causing foundations to crumble in Eastern CT, Dick Blumenthal met with the insurance companies and allowed them to exclude this coverage from homeowners policies. Homeowners who bought these houses have lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in equity. I hope that all of you complaining about the $12 fee will vote Republican.

Hi Mary Ellen. This is something the CT legislature proposed and voted into law.
As citizens, we need to make ourselves more aware of what our elected politicians are doing. If there is an issue you don't agree with, make sure you contact your representative.
In general, I don't believe in enabling — a hand up is better than a hand out. However, in this instance, many people were effected and had little recourse for remedy.
My concern is that the money raised by this surcharge would *actually* be used for its intended and not be put into some slush fund to be squandered as usual by politicians.

All added expenses to a landlord must eventually lead to a rent increase. It does effect renters in the long run. High taxes, increases in utilities such as water and sewer, and many more factors must be analyzed when considering rental increases.

Why are home owners paying for this why isn’t the person or persons completing the work responsible for remedying this issue. Here we are again paying for someone’s failure to give people the quality of work they pay for. In this day and age most people are having difficulty with their own bills nevertheless we are paying for someone’s bills other than ourselves ridiculous

7/25/2019 04:00:01 pm

In theory, if the contractors who poured these foundations were still in business and carried Completed Operations coverage, then their policy would cover homeowner(s) up to the limits of the policy. In many of these cases, however, the contractor(s) either went out of business long before the problem surfaced or claimed bankruptcy, so homeowners had no remedy.
The Department of Economic and Community Development has up to 1 million dollars to be used for grants-in-aid to certain homeowners.
In general, I do not like to be "legislated" into helping someone. However, paying $12 per policy for 10 years is not asking a lot to help desperate people in need.

DAWN WEBSTER

8/15/2023 04:37:18 pm

I never see taxes or surcharges end. If they don't need the money to pay for foundations anymore, they will decide that they will find someone else who is deserving of our money. Because we are never entitled to decide how we should spend our own money and who we want to help. It's always up to the elitists who are so much better than we are to decide how they should spend our money!

Is this $12 tax deductible? It sounds more like a mandatory donation for grants.

9/11/2019 02:11:46 am

I feel this charge is not fair...if you want to make it optional so each homeowner has the choice to contribute that's fine...
contractors and homebuyers should purchase their own insurance to cover these unforeseen circumstances...
Instead of slapping this bill onto everyone with a home ...why not charge every man, woman and child in ct instead.

9/11/2019 09:44:56 pm

Just another misuse of government in this state. My taxes aren’t enough to pay for this situation because of all the free services given to many not even entitled. Time for the free spending you politicians continue to do to stop! Then you have the nerve to tax my policy for something I was never responsible for! Why weren’t these concrete companies ever bonded and insurance responsible for these homes with crumbling foundations. This is just a tip of the iceberg folks! Run, don’t walk to get out of this socialist state!!! 😡

Hi Darlene. Start by contacting your homeowner's insurance agent. They can provide you with information about your policy and situation.

Franc Taylor

10/8/2019 02:41:11 pm

Even if the contractor and or concrete company that made foundations and concrete are out of business, the cost for fixing this issue should be levied on concrete companies and foundation contractors doing business in this state as a surtax on them. That will make the industry police itself. What about building inspectors. The land and concrete mix could not have been checked before the foundation was poured? I have always questioned doing local building inspection, because the inspector works for the town that gains tax revenue if the house is built. The inspector has a conflict of interest. That’s what happen at my house, the soil is clay, but the town did not require ribar in the cement cylinders holding up the carports. So the carports start falling and the cylinders have to be replaced with reinforced ones later.The towns should be also held accountable based on inspection liability.

We shouldn't have to pay for other people's homes. You going to pay my mortgage? I work to dam hard for what I have. Keep your grubby freakin hands out of my wallet, pockets and bank. You are all a bunch of lying thieves and should be thrown in prison. Better yet donate your pension and part of your career politician salaries. Bunch of thugs. We need you OUT OF OFFICE. When were YOU going to notified US about this fee by which you mean another form of tax. Also another fee on our license for parks and beaches. Tax tax tax tax. If this is there solution get them out of office. Call your constituents. Fill the switch boards make that telephone board burn up. Raise your hand up and run them OUT NOW.

It's called forced socialism. Another way of governing by un-American politicians. If it gets challenged in court, a just judge would throw it out as unconstitutional. Making certain homeowners in CT pay for certain homeowner's woes in New Haven is like a page out of the Karl Marx communist manifesto.

My car and home insurance went up yet again despite the fact that I have not been in an accident or made any claims for decades for either car or home. I am paying more insurance because other people have been in car accidents or have had home losses. I'm not happy to have to shell out more money. But that is the nature of insurance - we help each other. Of course you have the right to cancel your insurance. Then you won't be paying into a fund to provide for those who have losses. I'm happy not to have had an accident or a home loss. That would be worse than an annual $12. I pay health care insurance and am happy not to be sick or injured. As long as I'm healthy I'm paying so others, who are not healthy for a variety of reasons, aren't refused health care or bankrupted with medical bills. That's the nature of insurance. The fact is that this $12 surcharge is transparently disclosed. It also helps abate contaminants like radon and lead. Why not demand your insurance company tell you the instances that caused the rest of your home or car insurance coverage to have gone up? I did. Why not ask your insurance company to tell you how much you are paying to increase their executive pay? Or how much they spend lobbying to increase their profits? Or their stockholders' profits? That kind of transparency they oppose.

Rep Patricia Dillon

2/1/2020 02:31:05 pm

This information is false and should be corrected immediately. Most of the surcharge will save possibly 35,000 homes in eastern Connecticut, not Westville. Limited funds for Westville, totaling $1 million, are one time. Link and map here:

Furthermore as stated in a previous comment, We've also learned that once a new charge ( tax,fee,or whatever you want to call it) is put in place, it never comes off the books.

I drive by the beach and the sign is up, Beach is full, you suckers that paid your fee already are out of luck. Just another money grab that you can't do anything about.

If I leave to CT, I will miss the unlimited access to the north west coast beaches that are vast, where I can easily have 200 feet or more from the next person, and I am not required to automatically pay to maybe-one-day have access the beach.

This is getting out of hand the homeowners should sue the responsible parties for this issue and have their homeowners insurance cover these expenses. When will this state stop taking money from their residents for everything? I guess after the 10 years they will still be taking money to pay for the health and safety program to continue. You need to work for all the people in this state not just a few. You are pushing retired residents out by taxing us to death.

There mandated fees in every thing you pay. It’s never a lot until you add it all up!! They will grab your money to buy votes or the next pet peeve that comes along. they will keep finding way to take it. Remember no matter how hard you work it’s their money first to take and you can’t stop them because it’s always for a good cause and some one always says yea that’s a great idea. Wake up.

The Healthy Homes Fund Surcharge in Connecticut is a legislative initiative aimed at raising funds to assist homeowners dealing with crumbling foundations and other structural issues. It's a $12 surcharge applied to certain homeowner policies and condominiums, not renters' policies. The collected funds will primarily go toward aiding homeowners in specific areas affected by structural damage and addressing health and safety hazards in residential dwellings across Connecticut. It's a targeted effort to support affected homeowners and improve living conditions.

if this fund is to help fund health and safety hazards, how would one apply to get some of the money? Is it for anyone or are there income limits?

I'm a registered Democrat, but I didn't vote for Lamont. Why should everyone in the state bail out people who made a bad choice about real estate? This isn't Communist, guys it's just stupid.

I noticed the Healthy Home Fund Fee for my homeowers insurance since I just switched insurance companies. I just received my auto registration renewal and see all the fees slammed on it by the state.

Passport fee to the CT parks 15.00
Clean air act fee 15.00
Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fee 7.50

A registration bill that was under $100 is now 172.50 when adding all the fees up.
