FAIRFIELD â The public is invited to Scarecrowpalooza, a scarecrow building workshop and contest on Saturday, October 30, from 2 to 4 pm. The family event will be held on the societyâs front law at 636 Old Post Road. Scarecrowpalooza is free with cookies, cider, stuffing and paints provided.

Participants are asked to bring their own scarecrow costumes, accessories and face decorations to make their scarecrow unique. Prizes will be given for Best Traditional Scarecrow, Best Historic-Figure Scarecrow and The Peopleâs Choice (The Grand Palooza).

Also on Saturday, the societyâs popular Spooky Stroll will begin at 5 pm. Costumed interpreters will guide participants around Fairfieldâs Town Hall green and the Old Burying Ground on Beach Road, telling historical tales and local legends in the spirit of Halloween with stops at the former Edwardâs Pond, The Sun Tavern and more.

Fee for Spooky Stroll is $3 for members and $5 for others. Children ages 5-12 are free. Light refreshments will be served. Reservations and prior payment are required.

For more information and late reservations, call the society at 203-259-1598.

You are correct, Bruce. I know how hard these plans are to put together, but I still believe that we can have more definitive and measurable goals. I know there are a number of units coming online, and the community truly needs them. If only we can move the development of affordable housing to more of a partnership between the community and the developers than the adversarial tug-of-war it seems to be now, that would be good progress.

I agree, but we need to make sure they are pedestrian activated. The ones on Glover were supposed to be by order of the Police Commission, but the ones installed by Public Works were the cheaper flashing light. A couple of extra dollars are worth the lives it can save.

We have been doing the planning work. The State of Connecticut mandates every municipality to develop an affordable housing plan under C.G.S. §8-30j by June 1, 2022, to specify how they “intend to increase the number of affordable housing developments in the municipality.” In lieu of all eighteen municipalities in the Western Connecticut Region duplicating efforts to research, document and analyze affordable housing, the Council of Governments decided to work collectively by splitting the work into two parts: Regional Toolbox Specific, Policy Driven Municipal Annexes.

Great Idea. We used a similar process when Pat Llodra wanted input on Fairfield Hills. very useful.
