Mayor Hess reconvened the meeting at 7:11 p.m.
6. Mayor’s Opening Comments
A video owl and a big screen was purchased to hold hybrid board/commission
meetings in the GEM Room at the Naugatuck Event Center. People can attend the
meetings in person and/or virtually. The mayor told IT Director Jim Kallipolites to
purchase an additional video owl out of the Town Clerk’s Local Capital Improvement
Fund so two meetings can be held on the same evening. The mayor said the April
meeting will be held hybrid at the Gem Room.
Mayor Hess said tomorrow is a big day. He will be giving testimony in Hartford on the
Waterbury Branch Line. He and a few burgesses submitted written testimony in favor
of increasing trains on the Waterbury line. The proposal is to have fifteen to twenty-
two trains running per day. Increased trains would allow someone to leave Naugatuck
and know there will be a train to take them back.
The mayor said there will probably be a special meeting in March to discuss the Port
of Naugatuck. CSX Corporation bought our former partner Pan Am Railroad.
President Biden wants trucks off the roads and supports freight. Veolia and the
Wastewater Treatment Plant will also be discussed at the special meeting.
Mayor Hess said the Hunt investigations are still active and open. There will be no
further information until those investigations are competed.
The mayor would like a few burgesses to work with him and the CT Water Company
on the acquisition of some additional open space to finalize hiking trails.
A statewide problem on trash and trash pickup will be discussed tonight. Long-term
solutions are needed statewide.
7. Public Comment – Open Topic
A resident on Kosko Lane discussed his concerns with the proposed project at 0 Prospect
Street. He believes blasting may have a major effect on his well and the wells in the area.
8. Mayor Hess said there is a thirty-four million dollar increase in the October 1, 2020
Grant List. Over a million dollars in new revenue is coming to the borough to offset the
budget. Deputy Assessor Shelby Jackson said real estate is up five million dollars or
0.33%, personal property is up eighteen million dollars or 15%, motor vehicle is up 11
million dollars or 6.15%, which is an overall increase of thirty-five million dollars or
2.2%. He clarified that personal property is personal equipment businesses use to operate
their business.
9. VOTED: Unanimously on a motion by Deputy Mayor Taf Jackson and seconded by
Burgess Neth that the Board of Mayor and Burgesses authorize Mayor
Hess to enter into a contract with WC McBride Electrical Contractors LLC,
1027 Fairfield Avenue, Bridgeport, CT 06605 in the amount of
$550,416.42 for the installation of solar panels for the Photovoltaic Solar
Project at City Hill Middle School as recommended by the Naugatuck
Standing Building Committee and the Naugatuck Board of Education.

10. VOTED: Unanimously on a motion by Deputy Mayor Taf Jackson and seconded by
Burgess Mizeski that the Board of Mayor and Burgesses authorize Mayor
Hess to instruct Advanced Energy Efficiencies (AEE) to submit Zero
Emissions Renewable Energy Credits (ZRECS) applications to the State
of CT ZREC competitive auction. Further, the Mayor is authorized to sign
a Memorandum of Understanding between the Borough of Naugatuck &
AEE to secure favorable financing for the installation of solar energy at the
following BON facilities:
1. Andrew Avenue School
2. Naugatuck High School/BOE Building
3. Parks & Recreation Maintenance Facility
4. Naugatuck Police Department
5. Naugatuck Day Care Facility
This authorization is for the purposes of reducing the borough's energy costs and
improvement of its environmental sustainability with no upfront capital costs.
11. Mayor Hess said there is a legitimate space needs problem in the town hall. He said the
best candidate to leave the town hall is Probate Court. The cost of Probate Court is spread
between Naugatuck, Middlebury, Beacon Falls and Prospect. Building Inspector Bill
Herzman has been looking at buildings in town to locate a suitable facility without a
significant cost. Dr. Robert Matusz owns two buildings on Meadow Street. One is his
medical office and the other recently had a fire. The insurance company is paying for
100% of the build out of the damaged building. This is the best place for the price to
relocate Probate Court. Mr. Herzman said the space in town hall where the Probate Court
is located would create space to combine the engineering and building storage needs on
one floor, removing files being kept in the basement vault. He said building files need to
be kept for the life of the structure. The building department is currently storing files in the
hallway. The Matusz building also allows for the growth of Probate Court.
12. VOTED: Unanimously on a motion by Deputy Mayor Taf Jackson and seconded by
Burgess Neth that the Board of Mayor and Burgesses approve the bid and
authorize Mayor Hess to execute all contracts and related documents for a
“2021 Ford F-350 w/Service Body” to Shaker Family Ford Lincoln, 831
Straits Turnpike, Watertown, CT 06795 in the amount of $51,774.00 as
recommended by Assistant to the Public Works Director Sandra Lucas-
Ribeiro.
13. VOTED: Unanimously on a motion by Deputy Mayor Taf Jackson and seconded by

831 Straits Turnpike, Watertown, CT 06795 in the amount of $70,900.00 as
recommended by Assistant to the Public Works Director Sandra Lucas-

Minutes – Board of Mayor and Burgesses
Regular Meeting – March 2, 2021
Whenever the Board of Mayor and Burgesses shall appropriate funds for the extension of
water mains as permitted by Section 7-137c of the Connecticut General Statutes, the
owner of each property abutting such main shall reimburse the Borough of Naugatuck for
his proportionate share of the cost of said extension according to the following formula.
The total cost of any extension shall be calculated and determined by the Board of Mayor
and Burgesses within 120 days after the extension has been completed. The total cost shall
include the cost of water mains, including materials, installation, pumping stations, service
connections, curb, sidewalks and highway repairs, and the cost of the installation of gate
valves and shut offs, land acquisition and incidental expenses.
The Board of Mayor and Burgesses shall determine the proposed share of each property
owner proportioned in such a way that the municipality shall be ultimately be free from
any costs of the extension and expenses incidental thereto except where any portion of the
water main or service is to be used for a municipal purpose, in which instance the
municipality shall contribute a fair proportion of the expense representing such
proportional municipal share.
In a residential zone, the proportionate share of each property owner abutting the main
shall be determined by dividing the total cost of the extension as calculated by the Board
of Mayor and Burgesses, by the number of residential lots capable of being served by the
water main and abutting the water main. The sum thus derived shall be the proportionate
share.
Such proportionate share shall be the proposed assessment for each property owner. The
Board of Mayor and Burgesses shall direct such proper Borough officials as it determines
to prepare a list of the proposed assessments which list shall identify the property to be
affected by the proposed assessment, and shall contain the name and address of the owners
thereof as on file with the Assessor of the Borough of Naugatuck as of the date that the list
is prepared. The list shall be filed with the Town Clerk. The Board of Mayor and
Burgesses shall establish a date for a Public Hearing which shall not be later than sixty
(60) days following the determination of the proposed assessment and shall cause a notice
of Public Hearing to be published in the newspaper having a circulation in the Borough of
Naugatuck at least once and not less than seven (7) days prior to the hearing date. A notice
of the proposed assessment shall be mailed to each landowner of record abutting the water
main and such notice shall indicate the date, place and time of the Public Hearing and
advise that any person desiring may appear and be heard. The notice shall be mailed to the
address on file with the Assessor as of the date of mailing and shall be mailed United
States mail, postage prepaid, not later than fourteen (14) days prior to the hearing.
At said hearing, the Board of Mayor and Burgesses shall cause to be placed on the record
the basis of the cost calculation that it has made and the method selected in determining
the fair share of each property owner.

Minutes – Board of Mayor and Burgesses
Regular Meeting – March 2, 2021
Within thirty (30) days after the hearing the Board of Mayor and Burgesses shall make
such assessments as it finds it equal the fair proportionate share of each property owner in
accordance with Section 7-137c of the Connecticut General Statutes and shall cause a
notice of said assessment containing the names and addresses of the property owners and
the amount of said assessment and identifying the property in a newspaper having a
substantial circulation in the Borough of Naugatuck.
The Board of Mayor and Burgesses may permit the assessment to be amortized over a
term of twenty (20) years, payable with interest as may be established from time to time
by the Board of Mayor and Burgesses, with no pre-payment penalty. Notice of said
assessment shall be recorded in the land records of the Borough of Naugatuck and shall be
payable annually. Payment not made within thirty days of the payment date shall accrue
interest at the rate at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum.
In the case of any land zoned residential or classified pursuant to Sections 12-107a to 12-
107e of the Connecticut General Statutes inclusive, as farm land, forest land or open
spaced land on the last completed Grand List of the Borough, which exceeds by more than
100% the size of the smallest lot permitted in the lowest density residential zone allowed
under the zoning regulations, assessment of such excess land shall be deferred until such
time as such excess land shall be built upon or a building permit issued therefore or until
approval of a subdivision plan of such excess property by the Planning Commission,
whichever event occurs first, at which time the assessment shall be made. In the event that
such assessment is deferred, the Borough of Naugatuck Clerk of the Board of Mayor and
Burgesses shall cause a caveat to be placed on the Land Records in form satisfactory to
the Board of Mayor and Burgesses.
In an industrial and commercial zone, the proportionate share of each property owner
abutting the main shall be determined in each case on a case by case basis on a front foot
or other equitable basis provided that if residential or agricultural property or property
zoned for residential or agricultural use abuts lines of construction of water mains to be
used for industrial or commercial purposes, or partly for commercial purposes, or partly
for commercial or industrial purposes, and such property is not being used for such
purposes, the proportionate share of the owners of such property shall be computed on a
front foot or other equitable basis for a standard or minimum size main.
In any case where need for a particular extension is in response to a community pollution
problem as defined by Section 22a-423 of the Connecticut General Statutes and a grant is
received from the Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection, the Borough
may waive such reimbursement to the extent of any grant actually received.
If the Board of Mayor and Burgesses causes a water main extension to be made by a
public utility regulated under the laws of the State of Connecticut and if under the
provisions of any tariff agreement with said public utility, funds are reimbursed to the
Borough of Naugatuck as a result of tie-ins by property owners along the extension all
-7-
Minutes – Board of Mayor and Burgesses – Regular Meeting – March 2, 2021
said reimbursement payments shall become the property of the Borough provided that if
when all of the assessments have been paid and all of the reimbursements have been
received, the total amount received exceeds the cost of the project including all
incidentals, to the Borough, any excess funds shall be proportionately reimbursed to the
property owners affected provided that there shall be no reimbursement if the
reimbursement to any single property owner will be less than $25.00.
Within sixty (60) days of an assessment made pursuant to this ordinance and Section 7-
137c of the Connecticut General Statutes, the owner of any property assessed may appeal
to the Superior Court pursuant to the provision of Section 7-137c of the Connecticut
General Statutes as the same may be amended from time to time.

Burgess Neth that the Board of Mayor and Burgesses authorize Mayor
Hess to sign and enter into an “Investment Consulting Agreement” with
DiMeo, Schneider & Associates, formerly Fiduciary Investment Advisors
LLC, 500 W. Madison Street, Suite 1700, Chicago, IL 60661 to provide

19. Mayor Hess led a discussion on the MIRA Smart Demonstration Project as discussed
last month. He said there is a statewide problem regarding trash disposal that will come to
a head in a few years. He does not favor putting the problem onto taxpayers. He would
like to find a way to do it gradually. He said perhaps we could start using the SMART
Program bags (Save Money and Reduce Trash Program) and gradually work into the
program over a few years. The state is not going to fix it for us. We need to be smart about
the problem.
Deputy Mayor Jackson asked if we are giving residents any bags.
-9-
Minutes – Board of Mayor and Burgesses
Regular Meeting – March 2, 2021
Mayor Hess said we need to train people to make changes gradually over a few years.
Bags can be given but they would still need to buy bags.
Burgess Neth said the subcommittee is looking at implementing the program in small
steps. We need to educate people what the problem is right now and what the possible
solutions can be in the future. The subcommittee would like to hold a public hearing.
Mayor Hess said he wants the public hearing to inform people there will be a problem in
the future and that we need to find a long term solution.
Burgess Marenghi said the discussion forced him to examine trash in his own household.
We need to act because the state is not going to do something. We need to educate the
public on the options and get their feedback.
Mayor Hess would like options presented to residents at a public hearing. Options that
would gradually take us to a solution rather than make a requirement.
Burgess Vitale asked if we want people to go to a pay as you throw philosophy instead of
having the entire community pay for our needs as we do with fire and police. We should
start now educating people of the importance of recycling. Send out monthly reminders.
Burgess Herb feels the state betrayed us. He thinks the state should make MIRA stay
open and rebuild or repair the plant.
Mayor Hess said the cost to put the plant back would result in higher tipping fees for us.
The state doesn’t have a solution. Volume reduction of trash is a good thing.
Burgess Mizeski said maybe we could have a subsection of people in town put the
program in place then discuss how it reduced the waste in their household and what
impact it had on their finances.
Burgess Bronko said he does not like the idea of putting this onto taxpayers without
education first.
Burgess DeOliveira said education is key to people understanding the problem.
20. VOTED: Unanimously on a motion by Deputy Mayor Taf Jackson and seconded by
Burgess Neth that the Board of Mayor and Burgesses authorize Controller

Comments regarding the Naugatuck Teachers’ League Contract
Burgess DeOliveira “I appreciate everything the teachers do. I understand their jobs are
valuable but I feel the contract is just a little much for my personal liking. I would be
willing to discuss when the contract is passed. So if anyone would like to reach out,
personally I would be willing to discuss with them.”
Burgess Neth “Until we can control arbitration in the State of Connecticut on all unions,
we will continue to get contracts that are way out of their minds. And me personally, I
could not vote on this contract tonight based on what I see for the first time that we’ve
seen it.”
