Newtown Winterset Ski Club will NOT be hosting their annual Ski & Skate Sale at Edmond Town Hall this year. So if youâre looking for used equipment, you can check the swap sale at Alpine Ski Works this Saturday and Sunday, November 20 and 21.

Anyone who has equipment to sell may drop it off this Friday, November 19, before the sale at Alpine. Their new location is across from Stew Leonards on Federal Road.

A reminder to Winterset Club members only that Friday night at Alpine Ski Works from 7 to 9 pm is a special discount night on all ski equipment and clothing. Also, bring your skis for a special tune-up price of $9.95.

The club hosts many bus day trips and weekend trips, along with many social events to keep up on current events in the skiing world. Enjoy winter in New England and check out our club. Anyone interested in more information on Winterset Ski Club may contact us at Winterset@prodigy.com.

‘Timeless Newtown’ Series To Launch With Community Discussion Lunch & Learn

Holly Kocet is pushing a false narrative. The facts simply don't bear out any negative impact to the traffic on Mt Pleasant Road. Saying it does , does not make it true. The road handles in excess of 40,000 trip a day. a couple hundred form Castle Hill is negatable.

A Development Must Be A Good Fit

Yea. great decision and it will add to the quality of comments posted.

Finally, The Time Has Come(And Some Reminders)

Not approving a development that has "checked" all the boxes because the NIMBY mob doesn't like it is wrong.

The town historically has strong collaboration with developers, but the primary obstacle arises from community opposition exerting undue influence on the zoning department. This "NIMBY" pressure often leads to project rejections that exceed the department's actual jurisdiction or authority. Consequently, developers face a limited set of options: either engage in expensive legal battles or leverage the Connecticut Affordable Housing Land Use Appeals Procedure (CGS § 8-30g) as a recourse.

Discusses Moratorium

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.
