The defendants also claim that we should declare § 46a-64c to be unconstitutional as impermissibly vague. The defendants’ claim appears to be that, insofar as two state agencies interpret the statute’s requirements to mean different things, the statute is per se vague. In support of this position, the defendants claim that the department views the acceptance of a guarantee by the landlord to be voluntary, while the commission views that acceptance as mandatory. In response, the commission contends that the statute is not vague, and that the meaning of “lawful source of income” is sufficiently clear to establish that refusal to accept a guarantee constitutes prohibited discrimination. We conclude that the defendants also have inadequately briefed this claim.
