Girl Scouts of America, Newtown division, announced earlier this year that it was hoping to locate Newtownâs oldest and youngest Girl Scouts as part of this yearâs efforts to honor Scouts of all ages and âBe Your Best Day,â which honors the birthday of the Girl Scout organization.

The 89th birthday of Girl Scouts was March 12, and Newtownâs Scouts celebrated Girl Scout Week in Newtown this year from March 11-17. First Selectman Herb Rosenthal met with Girl Scouts of all ages at Edmond Town Hall in late February to announce the recognition of Girl Scout Week in Newtown.

Baskets have been prepared for two special Girl Scouts in Newtown. The first will be presented to the oldest living Girl Scout in Newtown, Alice CornelÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â .

The second basket will be presented to the first prospective Girl Scoutand the search continues.

Anyone who may know of the youngest prospective Girl ScoutÂ â the girl in Newtown who was born closest to March 12, 2001 â is asked to contact Mandy Monaco at 426-5600 as soon as possible.

The Way We Were

Some facts to consider. A total of 40,00 trips a day take place on Rt 25, The Castle Hill project will add less than 1%. Cluster homes are already an approved concept for the Borough, because it preserves open land and builds homes with sewer and public water. I'm Suggesting the Zoning Board should approve this because its a proposal that meets conservation goals and "checks" all the boxes.

A Development Must Be A Good Fit

Head on a swivel at all times - especially in grocery parking lots! Keep an eye out for folks turning at the flagpole - it befuddles them at times.

How do you propose tapping the brakes, Dave? 8-30g already trumps any local regulations- you don't have a brake pedal to push. Brookfield, Trumbull and now Ridgefield have a clear case for a moratorium based on the development (thanks to 8-30g) that has already occurred. I don't see a clear case for Newtown to request a moratorium... yet.

Backs Moratorium On Dense Development Applications

Nobody is suggesting shutting the doors on new neighbors. What neighboring towns are doing, and what we should be doing too, is to tap the brakes on all of the multi-family residential development proposals so that we can spend 6 months updating our regulations such that if you want to build dense residential housing here, XX percent of it needs to be affordable (we will never make any headway on increasing our percentage of affordable housing otherwise, short of 8-30g), and the rest needs to be done in as low an impact manner as possible. Low impact on traffic, health & safety, the environment and on the cost of town services.

Hey, there you go! Richard solved it. Thanks, that seems so easy- we'll just get rid of the 2nd amendment and the Supreme Court. Seriously, the 2nd amendment doesn't create violent criminals or mental illness. The Supreme Court doesn't create violent criminals or mental illness. The problem is not the tools, but the criminals & the mental illness. The state of Connecticut seems to be focused on the tools, like Richard, while ignoring the users of those tools.
