There are four borrowing items up for discussion. Click this link for more information.
1. Should the city borrow $3.1 million more for the new police station project under construction on Main Street?
2. Should the city borrow $1.5 million for road improvements?
3. Should the city borrow $300,000 for “firefighting improvements?”
4. Should the city borrow $100,000 for a recreational fields and facility study?
In a Facebook post Saturday, Alderman Tarek Raslan raised a number of questions about the bonding, saying that he and fellow Democrats on the board didn’t know the public hearing was coming.
In the video above, I read Raslan’s statement, then a statement from Ansonia Corporation Counsel John Marini in response.
Press play to watch.
