BOE Discusses Radon Update, Stop-Arm Enforcement Program

Hey all! I know that we're always trying to be nicer in Newtown and all that but I thought you should know I'm 110% on board with "massive ticketing". If there isn't some error in the data and we're really seeing almost 100 violations in a week let's just bring the hammer down. You can "warm up" the driving public with a big fat ticket in the mail. Word will spread quickly! Why people in this state seem to need to apologize for enforcing the law is beyond my understanding.

BOE Discusses Radon Update, Stop-Arm Enforcement Program

While I was First Selectman, Town policy was to reserve the CodeRED system strictly for true emergencies. The most significant crisis during my term was the August 18, 2024 flood, which severely impacted homes, businesses, roads, bridges, and park infrastructure. That was a genuine emergency requiring mass notifications over a period of days. For snowstorms or other weather events that did not wreak significant damage, I used the Town’s News & Announcements system to notify subscribers and supplemented those updates through social media. It’s important that Town communication channels are used appropriately. CodeRED was intentionally reserved for the most serious events so residents would not become desensitized and begin to tune out critical alerts.
