SEYMOUR — A mandatory fire watch, per order of the town fire marshal, will be in place at Chatfield School when students and staff return in September to ensure their safety.
Due to code violations that have occurred as a result of the ongoing $32.5 million school expansion and renovation, Fire Marshal Paul Wetowitz said the elementary school must have a fire watch in place anytime students and staff are in the building. Wetowitz said he has the authority to bar the school from opening Sept. 6 for the 2011-12 school year if a fire watch is not in place.
