8. Public Comment – None
9. Burgess Comments – Open Topic
Burgess Vitale is concerned the Hop Brook Pool bond question may affect the outcome
of the other questions which he said are necessary and need to pass.
Burgess Jackson asked the Mayor if he would consider appointing Bob Allen to the Park
Commission.
Burgess Scully thanked everyone for voting on the referendum.
Deputy Mayor Rossi met the new School Superintendent Sharon Locke and was taken
aback by her complete level of approachability. She was also impressed with her sense of
our community. She looks forward to her plans and goals for the students and the district.
Burgess Olbrys thanked the taxpayers for going out to vote. He read a prepared
statement regarding the current budget process. For the record: “. . . I do believe the
transit money should be put back into the budget for those who are disabled and cannot
get around on their own. To force them to have to pay more when they are some of the
most disadvantaged members of society is not right. We can raise golf course fees by a
dollar or something to help cover this expense. From a human stand point, I don’t think
it’s right to fund a golf course but not fund a system of transportation that allows disabled
people to get around. Some of the riders, all of the riders are unable to drive and they use
this to get to their jobs. If it wasn’t for the transportation service they would be unable to
go to work.”

27. Burgess Comments/Sub-Committee Reports
Burgess Olbrys reminded everyone the Arts Festival will be held on August 23rd.
Deputy Mayor Rossi reported the Juvenile Review Board had two hearings last month.
The Fire Department responded to 97 incidents in July. Three new probationary
firefighters will be entering the Fire Academy. The refurbishment of Engine 5 is due back
in November. The Deputy Mayor had an opportunity to view a video from a police
officer’s lapel camera. A Taser deployment occurred when suspects, with outstanding
warrants, tried to flee several times from police officers. She is impressed with the
camera and thinks it’s an effective evidence and training tool.
Burgess Jackson announced the Naugatuck Education Foundation will be holding a golf
tournament on September 20th at Hop Brook Golf Course.
Burgess Vitale reported the Fire Department responded to 28 box thirty-five call backs
in June, double the normal amount. These types of occurrences affect the overtime
budget. The Fire Police are not certified firefighters. Congratulations to Jason Alfred on
his promotion as Lieutenant and Mike Chatfield on his promotion as Captain. The Fire
Marshal’s office does not have enough time to keep up with inspections. The Public
Works Department has been doing an excellent job cleaning and trimming in the
Industrial Park.
28. VOTED: Unanimously on a motion by Deputy Mayor Rossi and seconded by
Burgess Jackson to adjourn the meeting at 8:02 p.m.
A digital recording of this meeting is available in the office of the Borough Clerk for
