WOODBURY â The Womanâs Club of Woodbury will present its 15th Annual Holiday House Tour on Saturday, December 12, from 10 am to 4 pm. Snow date will be Sunday, December 13.

Featured this year will be four homes dating to the 18th and 19th Centuries, and two home more recently built in the traditional Colonial style, in keeping with Woodburyâs history. Most have many beautiful antiques, and all will be decorated in fine holiday fashion. An additional bonus this year will be the inclusion of a unique farm winery.

Proceeds raised from the event will be utilized by the womenâs club for scholarships, community services and local charities supported by the club in the greater Waterbury area.

Those participating on the tour are asked to bring slippers with them, or at least wear slip-on shoes in order to help protect the floors and carpeting of participating homes.

They clearly didn't get the message ! CUT THE BUDGET by 20% , not raise it ! Newtown spends $2,500,000.00 every week now ! It will be $2.6m if you approve it ! Who are these people not paying attention to the cost of living? Throwing money at the school administration will not make your kids any smarter ! We are at $22K per kid per year, that is insane ! CUT THE BUDGET ! Go show up and VOTE, because 1200 people who voted yes will show up again, and it's the 1200 people who decide your cost of living for years to come. 51% voters turnout should be mandated to approve the budget, not pathetic 15% of voters. Stop these nonsensical referendums and send everyone a card in the mail so we have a true outcome what people actually want.

Council Cuts $1.4 Million From School Budget

All due respect, the headline to this article is misleading. The budget presented was a proposed budget that did not pass public referendum. There are no cuts to anything, rather a reduction in the Board of Education original asking dollars. As matter of fact, the current recommendation from the LC is an increase of 2.3M more than the previous budget from 2023/24.

Some background on the Bus comment Mr Knapp made on not following policy. From ther Bee may 2023. Following a Request for Proposal (RFP), the school board learned at its March 15 meeting that only one bid came back for the school district’s transportation contract. The current contract with All-Star Transportation, which oversees the majority of bus routes for the district, is set to end at the end of this school year. At the May 3 meeting, district Director of Business & Finance Tanja Vadas said — reacting to Public Participation speaker Ryan Knapp who, among other things concerning the transportation contract, questioned the school district’s RFP process — she stands by the district’s RFP process “but other companies just didn’t bid.”

Concerns With Adherence To School District Policies

Additionally, they also anticipate over a $300,000 surplus for this fiscal year.
