NORWALK, Conn. Who gets access to city-owned fields in Norwalk? How are they being used? What impact do the COVID-related scheduling concerns have on field usage?
These are some of the questions that came up at the Feb. 10 meeting of the Common Council’s Recreation and Parks committee. For a long time, access to the fields has been run by “an old boys’ group,” Council member John Kydes (D, District C) said, stating that many agreements were made verbally or through “handshake” arrangements.
“A lot of these leagues have gotten comfortable with the ‘old boys league,’” he said. “And now we’ve grown to the size where I think we need to just reign them in, and just kind of streamline this process.”
NORWALK, Conn.
Contrasting opinions on turf fields and a would-be welcome center, disappointment over another possible delay regarding Cranbury Elementary and a consensus that the Silvermine Elementary School is dangerous and some school bathrooms disgusting marked the Planning Commission’s virtual hearing Wednesday on the capital budget.
More than 30 people spoke to the Commission, many of them responding to austere recommendations made by Chief Financial Officer Henry Dachowitz, characterized by citizen Jennifer Romano as “really disproportionate to the needs and ask, especially for the schools.” The comments prompted Planning Commission Chairwoman Frances DiMeglio and other Commissioners to point out that they have their role in the process, but the buck stops with the Common Council.
