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.
 
Please sign the petition here: https://chng.it/27FpdgjgJZ

Watch Out For The Latest Scam!
A new scam has arrived — just in time for the holidays. This particular scam begins with a text message from the USPS that claims a package will be returned unless you provide missing address details. A link is given for the address details, but do NOT click on the link.
     To dispose of the scam message:
     •  If it’s a text message, block the sender, then delete the message.
     •  If it’s an email, flag it as phishing, which should delete the message automatically. If it doesn't, delete the message manually and empty your trash folder too.
     If you believe there may be a lost package, please call the local Post Office instead of responding to a message like this. Thank you to Villager Deborah Brody for pointing out this latest scam.

Take Care With Space Heaters!
With temperatures dropping, you may want to plug in your space heater. The National Fire Protection Association reports that space heaters caused nearly half of home heating fires from 2011 to 2015, and were responsible for 85 percent of home heating fire deaths.
  • Place your space heater on a level, flat surface.
  • Inspect the heater for cracked or broken plugs, and loose connections. If the heater is damaged, do not use it.
  • Plug your space heater directly into a wall outlet. Do not use with a power strip or extension cord, as these can overheat and cause a fire.
  • Locate space heaters out of high traffic areas and doorways where they may pose a tripping hazard.
  • Keep anything that can burn at least 3 feet away from your space heater, and keep pets and children away from the heater.
  • Never leave a space heater unattended. Turn it off when you leave the room.
  • Never use a space heater while you sleep.

One of the Top 55+ Communities in the USA!
Heritage Village ranks high — number 11 — in a recent study of the best 55+ communities in the United States. Coventry Direct, the insurance company, analyzed more than 2,600 such communities, numerically ranking them based on both amenities and community details. HV received a perfect score for amenities, 50 out of 50 — one of only six communities to do so!
     In the amenities section, Coventry investigated access to Exercise and Wellness, Entertainment, and Outdoor Activities. Heritage Village blasted past most competitors, especially in Entertainment and Outdoor Activities.
     In the community details section, Coventry reviewed such details as the prices and affordability of homes, age limits, and security. Once again, the Village showed its stuff, powering its way into the top communities of this study.
     Out of the top 25 communities for 55+ on this list, Heritage Village is the ONLY one in the northeast and practically the only one not in the Sunbelt. For those who enjoy changing seasons, Heritage Village is number one.
