The present case is the first instance in which we have construed the text of § 46a-64c. Our narrow construction of the statutory exception for “insufficient income” contemplates a specific fact-bound determination of a potential tenant’s capacity to carry his or her part of the bargain. The construction that we have adopted departs significantly from that urged at trial, or in this court, by the commission. The defendant deserves the chance to make its case in accordance with our ground rules.
