The trial court concluded that, because the relators’ income did not meet the defendant’s minimum income standard, their income was “insufficient” under § 46a-64c (b) (5). It agreed with the defendant that, although the defendant’s high minimum income standard resulted, in fact, in the disqualification of all low income tenants, the express terms of the statutory exception made this conduct legal.
