Selectmen Change Their Meeting Place

Starting in February, the Board of Selectmen will begin meeting in the

multi-purpose/senior center building on Riverside Road in Sandy Hook.

First Selectman Bob Cascella said the decision to move from the Town Hall

South conference room was prompted by the pending closure of the Main Street

building and the subsequent move by town employees who work there to Canaan

House on the campus of Fairfield Hills.

Also, the selectmen agreed to schedule two meetings per month with the option

to cancel one of them if there is no business. In December, Mr Cascella had

suggested trimming the number of meetings to one per month, something former

first selectman Jack Rosenthal said worked quite well during his terms in

office.
