ANSONIA — Resident Bart Flaherty Tuesday told state Rep. Linda M. Gentile, D-Ansonia, state Sen. Joseph J. Crisco, D-Woodbridge, and state Rep. Leonard Greene, R-Seymour, that the state has to curb its spending.
Flaherty was one of three residents who turned out for a public forum held by the legislators at City Hall.
