Congratulations, Sage Park, my "junior high" alma mater! With a child entering 6th grade…Read More next year, I'm excited about this news!

Congratulations to the students and teachers at Sage Park.

Thank you for sharing the good news. Did you post this in your capacity as a Windsor citizen, or as…Read More the paid communications consultant for the Windsor Public Schools?

Just curious...any relation to Griffin Land, Imperial Nursuries, River Bend Associates?

R Eleveld - Just to clarify, The Town Ethics Committee ruled (1) that the BOE is subject to the Town…Read More Ethics Code, but (2) they do not have jurisdiction over violations of BOE by laws violations. When someone is brought in front of an Ethics Committee, and comes out vindicated, one of two things happen. They are humbled, or emboldened. The BOE President, and the Superintendent of Schools are emboldened because virtually nothing stands in their way of two person absolute rule, until November 2013. The only obstacle is for one of the Democrat BOE members joining the other four BOE members to reign (the pun works all too well here) them in (this appears unlikely). What is the old saying, Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely? So we have to wait until November to try and fix this situation. In the meantime the voters in Windsor can keep voting NO on the referenda to send the message that we do not want dysfunctional BOE oversight. Or we could get back a functional BOE. Since September 12, 2012, this possibility grow less likely each day.
R Eleveld May 20, 2013 at 10:18 am
@Michele, you are correct. The TC can only provide the BoE an amount of money, it can not in anyway…Read More tell the BoE what to do with that money. It could make suggestions, however they carry the same weight as any citizen making any suggestion to the BoE. State law has created the BoE as an island unto itself. They do not even think they are subject to the Town Ethics Code. The voters do have the power to change what they do not like in November. The question is will they again repeat the prior behavior and vote in those that will not make change. Remember Einstein's definition of insanity. It applies here.

My understanding is that TC can't tell the BoE what to do. However, taxpayers can and should start…Read More asking questions! In the past, I believe the majority of taxpayers (myself included) operated on the assumption that once elected, our local govt. officials will take reasonable care to do their jobs correctly and effectively, even if they have had some differences of opinion. However, that was THEN, this is NOW. NOW it appears our taxpayers are waking up to the fact (myself included) that the standards of what was expected, no longer apply. If you're not happy with how your local govt officials are behaving or spending YOUR MONEY ask questions, get involved, SPEAK OUT, and tell them as much so that come NOVEMBER when you decide to vote them out they'll know why.

They did a good job of investigation along with Ms. Fissel. in the article: Some investigation…Read More yields more questions.
I ask some questions about the timing of this whole situation. It is now become an embarrassment to Windsor, Loyola, and Dr. James. The idea of this research/study is important, however this execution is fraught with problems and serious concerns.

What they don't get is that the Dollar Tree and Poquonock development are not isolated issues.…Read More They directly relate to the overall frustration of voters. Residents have repeatedly been told that development will produce "benefits" for them and the town and help keep taxes low. Meanwhile, those "benefits" always seem to go to an ever hungry, yet still failing, education beaurocracy while the center of town and other neighborhoods languish with no improvements and taxes still go up.

What Mayor Trinks and Minority Leader Jepson refuse to acknowledge is that people (ALL people) are…Read More tired. Most Windsor residents whether they are on the right or the left want cost effective responsible government. We want our elected officials to remember that they ARE accountable to the people. It is OUR money hence OUR priorities should set the agenda. No more horse trails or sidewalks to nowhere. This November let’s send a clear message to the Town Council – step aside boys a new team is taking over.

Does any of you have your boss / employer / client PrePay Your Travel Expenses to Commute To Work?…Read More Our Taxes are being increased to Pay for The Travel Expenses of the Chicago Shyster $20k per yr for a total of $60k to do a worthless study after firing teachers & closing a school - Remind your friends & family they still have 2 hours left to Stop the Waste of Money VOTE NO! & keep our taxes from increasing!

Michaela you would be a great asset on the BOE. Have you considered running in November? If you do…Read More not want to run as an R or a D you can run as an independent. I would def vote for you and I know that Bob would do so too.
