MESSAGE FROM DAN DREW, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER
Hello Residents,
The Town of Southbury received federal ARPA funds for a variety of public projects. One of those projects for which $1.5 million was appropriated appears to be defunct. We have put together the letter below to ask the Board of Selectmen to re-appropriate those funds into a public sidewalk/multi-use trail network along the public roads encircling Heritage Village. We are asking each of you to sign the petition at the link below to demonstrate to town officials that our residents, who make up a quarter of the town’s entire population, would love to see an infrastructure investment by their local government for their safety, enjoyment, and to connect them by foot and bicycle with other sidewalks through which they can reach downtown.
We will present this to the Board of Selectmen at an upcoming meeting.
