ANSONIA - As many of you know, Mayor Cassetti and I, as well as the
Ansonia Board of Alderman have been discussing this study, as well as
regionalization and shared services for many years. As we continue to see funding from the State
decrease, we must be proactive as a municipality and as a region, in protecting
ourselves, our children, and our communities.
Working together we can study how to achieve greater efficiencies,
better quality services, and greater availability of programs in our
schools.
The Shelton Board of Education voted earlier this week to
ask their Board of Alderman to join in the regionalization study that was
approved in Ansonia in February. I want
to applaud the Shelton Board of Education and Shelton’s Mayor, Mark Lauretti for choosing
to join Ansonia and Derby in the regionalization study.
After many years of discussions regarding shared services
and regionalization, the valley communities are finally coming together to
discuss how we can all work together for the benefit of all the Naugatuck
Valley. With Shelton now choosing to
join Ansonia and Derby, we now look to our good friends in Seymour and their
First Selectman Kurt Miller to also join the study. We hope to hear that
announcement in the coming days.
Joseph P. Jaumann
5th Ward Alderman
City of Ansonia
