Referendum polls reduced toone; general elections unchanged
Puzzle tournamentreconnects seniors with
beneficial pastime NHHS alum’s book spotlights NYC street food
By Kyle SwartzThe North Haven Citizen
To conserve taxpayer dol-lars and improve school se-curity, town polling locationsduring referendum voteswill be reduced to only therecreational center, accord-ing to the North Haven Reg-istrars of Voters Office.
Primaries and generalelections – local, state, andnational – will still operatewith all five polling places.But for referendum votes,such as passing or failingmunicipal budgets, residentswill now just visit the reccenter, 5 Linsley St.
Postcards explaining thismodification were mailedout to all North Haven house-holds last week. Some people
have protested. Town offi-cials believe positives of theplan outweigh negatives.
According to North HavenRegistrars of Voters LaurieBrangi and Patty Jackson-Marshall, holding a votewith all five polling places –the rec center plus the fourelementary schools – costs$12,000. Running only theLinsley Street locationwould decrease operationalcosts, saving $7,000 to $7,500per referendum. And be-cause referendum decisionstend to have low turnouts,Brangi and Jackson-Mar-shall said, one facility couldsuffice instead of spendingtown money to open all five.
During the 2011 budget ref-erendum, only 11 percent ofNorth Haven registered vot-
ers visited polls. The nextyear, just 6.2 percent turnedout for the budget decision.The 2012 referendum on $14million in bonding broughtin only 9.3 percent.
Moreover, as polling spotsare publicly open within ele-mentary schools duringclass hours, officials see a po-tential security risk in thatsomebody could take advan-tage of this unimpeded ac-cess into a school. Followingthe attack by an assailantwho stormed Sandy Hook El-ementary School in New-town on Dec. 14, enhancedprotection of students wason the mind of those behindthe change.
“It’s always been a safety
By Kyle SwartzThe North Haven Citizen
A 2000 graduate of NorthHaven High School has co-au-thored a new book which pro-vides a taste of Manhattanwithout the hassle of crowdsor traveling into New York.
Co-written by third-gener-ation North-Havener Alexan-dra Penfold, “New York á laCart: Recipes and Storiesfrom the Big Apple’s BestFood Trucks,” contains over100 recipes from 46 Manhat-tan street vendors. She willsign copies of the book onSaturday, April 6, at 1 p.m. atthe North Haven Barnes andNoble, 470 Universal Dr.
In addition to instructionson how to prepare eclecticdishes, the book also pro-vides colorful background in-formation on the vendorsthemselves.
“My co-author Siobhan
Wallace and I started writinga blog five years ago, blondie-andbrownie.com, when thefood-truck scene started toexplode in the city,” said Pen-fold, who now resides in theManhattan area and went tocollege there. “Through theblog, we became friends withall these street vendors, peo-ple selling food out of eithertrucks or carts. This is notnecessarily the food you’dget at a restaurant. A lot of itis oral recipes passed down,
some real hometown cook-ing.”
“We asked each vendorabout their business, whatwere their inspirations,strategies, backgrounds,”she added. “Siobhan and Iused to work together in thecity and we visited all thesevendors. So when we got theidea for the book, the ven-dors already knew us and

By Paul ColellaSpecial to the Citizen
On a cold and overcastMarch afternoon, a groupof friendly puzzle enthusi-asts participated in a puz-zle tournament held at theJoyce C. Budrow SeniorCenter.
“This is the first time weare doing this program,”said Sue Jung, senior cen-ter program coordinator.“We got the idea from theNorth Haven Library whenone of our staff members,Ellen McDonald, and a sen-ior center member LindaHarder went to register forthe puzzle contest at the li-brary, but registration wasfull.”
“It was then that JudyAmarone, the center’s di-rector, and I went alongwith Ellen and Linda’s sug-
gestion that we have a puz-zle contest right here at thecenter,” added Jung. “Wepitched the idea and twen-ty members signed up.”
Jung divided the twentyparticipants into fivegroups of four, and McDon-ald and Amarone joined inon the fun.
“When I was young, I didnot have the patience to sitand do puzzles, but now Iappreciate puzzles and en-joy doing them,” saidAmarone. “At the end of awork day, when the centeris closed, I spend twentyminutes working on a puz-zle. It brings a sense ofcalmness and peace andI’m enjoying this favoritepastime that is loved bymany including some ofthe seniors.”

Exhibitors explain their work at Q Chamber’s Business ExpoBy Eric Vo
Special to The Citizen
A common scene in theNorth Haven Holiday Inn onMarch 21 was people walkingfrom booth to booth at theQuinnipiac Chamber ofCommerce’s Business Expoto learn about companies andorganizations.
A number of booths wereset up by institutions andbusinesses such as MidStateMedical Center, VerizonWireless, TD Bank and theWallingford Family YMCA.Some exhibitors incorporat-ed a charitable cause withtheir booth. Verizon Wirelessencouraged people to donate$2 to spin a wheel, givingthem a chance to win prizessuch as phone chargers andcases, with the money goingto the March of Dimes.
While those who attendedthe event received free giftssuch as key chains, bags andlanyards, they ultimately had

“I’m here to create dia-logue and to help people un-derstand what we do,” said
Sarah Inc. manager JimLamb. Sarah Inc. is a non-profit organization thatworks to provide job oppor-tunities for people with intel-
lectual disabilities. Based inGuilford, the organizationhas program sites in NorthHaven, Madison, Westbrookand Branford. One job oppor-tunity the organization puttogether for the people itserves was at Holo-Krome, amanufacturing company inWallingford, Lamb said. Theorganization’s current proj-ect is a recycling program, inwhich members of the com-munity can place plastic bot-tles and cans into a drop box.Each nickel is eventuallyturned into “jobs, life skillstraining and community ex-periences for the people weserve,” according to the orga-nization’s website. By havinga booth at the expo and talk-ing to business owners andthe public, Lamb said he is“changing the paradigm ofwhat people (with intellectu-al disabilities) can do,” hesaid.
The Business Expo alsoserves as a networking op-
portunity, giving employeesthe chance to connect withother people. The expos al-low people to meet in person,said Doreen DeSarro, busi-ness recruiter for Walling-ford.
“It’s better than just pick-ing up the phone,” DeSarrosaid. “This allows us to put aface to a name.”
DeSarro said the econom-ic development office attendsthe Business Expo everyyear because it “showcaseswhat the town has to offer.”But she said she really val-ued the opportunity to meetand network with other busi-ness owners.
“You can meet with otherpeople from other businessesand establish relationships,”she said. “We know peoplehere because they attendfrom year to year.”

Rotaract pitches chili cook-off Founded last spring, the Rotaract Club
of Greater New Haven was sponsored bythe North Haven Rotary Club and in-cludes young professionals between 24and 32 years of age. The secretary of theservice organization, Lauren DiNorscia,recently approached the Rotary Club re-garding her group’s first annual ChiliCook-Off. The upcoming fundraiser is setfor Saturday, May 11. An entry fee ischarged and six quarts of your favoritechili delivered to their host site, the HighLane Club in North Haven. While ex-pressing her group’s enthusiasm, shesaid that the event will primarily benefitthe Connecticut Food Bank, and the win-ner will receive a cash prize.
Rotary President Michael Hallahanpraised the Rotaract Club for their activerole in the community while encouraging everyone to take part in the contest.
DiNorscia said that her club is seeking at least 10 contestants to enter their homemadechili, adding that the rules preclude any commercial or canned chili, and all entries mustbe prepared by the contestant and served from a crock pot. The judging will begin at 1p.m., and the winner will be announced at 3:30. An individual donation from the public ofmoney plus a canned good for the Food Bank, or a donation without a canned good, allowsentry into the High Lane Club that day where participants will judge in a blind tastingwhich recipe is the best. In addition, there will be raffles throughout the event for variousprizes, as well as a 50/50 raffle. DiNorscia said that she hopes that there is a great turnoutto support both Rotaract and its charity. Applicants must be registered by April 27.

issue,” said Brangi, who isalso a North Haven motherand PTA member. “Even be-fore we decided to talk aboutconsolidated polls, even be-fore Newtown, we got callsfrom parents unhappy abouthow polls made schools soopen to the public.”
“Even though we stationpolice outside of schools dur-ing polling, they can’t stopand ask every person what’sin their bag, they can’t stopand ask every person what’stheir nature in being at theschool,” Brangi added. “Po-lice are going to assume thatpeople have come to theschool to vote. But what ifpeople aren’t there to vote?We live in a world now wherewe’re not sure about thesethings anymore.”
In letters-to-the-editorprinted in the Citizen this is-sue (see page 14) and theweek prior, some residentshave criticized the alteration.In his letter of March 22, resi-
dent Sherman Katz arguedthat operating just one cen-tral location, as opposed tomultiple polling places at theextremities of North Haven,would dissuade people frommaking the longer trip tovote.
He also believed that park-ing lots around 5 Linsley St.would not be capable of han-dling everybody having topark near the rec center.
Brangi and Jackson-Mar-shall, however, pointed outthat for last November’s Gen-eral Election, without signifi-cant logistical problems,about 3,300 North Haven vot-ers visited the rec center, anattendance figure equal orgreater than most recent ref-erendum turnouts.
The idea to consolidatepolling locations first came toBrangi and Jackson-Mar-shall in 2012, when Gov. Dan-nel Malloy was consideringsimilar measures. The NorthHaven registrars went toFirst Selectman Michael Fre-

PuzzleContinued from page 1
Before the tournament, theparticipants enjoyed lunchconsisting of soup, sandwich,coffee and dessert. Then thetables were cleared and Jung,who served as the moderatorwent over the rules with theparticipants, passed out thepuzzle boxes to each team.The puzzle was called “ACountry Scene” by PuzzleStudio. It had 500 pieces.
“No one knew what thepuzzle was. Once the puzzleboxes were placed on the ta-bles, I instructed everyone to
begin,” Jung said. “The timeto complete the puzzle wastwo and a half hours. Thewinners would win prizesand those who did not finishhad the option of taking thepuzzle home.”
Each team had its ownstrategy of putting the puz-zle together. One person sort-ed the colors, anotherworked on border and endpieces, another worked onmatching and fitting pieces,and the fourth team memberoffered assistance to the oth-er members.
“The secret is to work onthe edges first and then tack-
le the colors,” said Nick Mas-troianni, a senior partici-pant. “I enjoy working onpuzzles and I usually workon them alone. My wife San-dra got me involved with thesenior center, and today sheand I are participating to-gether in the contest. This isour first time as a husbandand wife team.”
Mastrioianni explainedthat he enjoys participatingin the various programs atthe center. Like Mastrioian-ni, another member Jo-AnnBuccetti enjoys going to thecenter.
Buccetti said, “I like being
with the people who are veryfriendly. I enjoy listening totheir stories and I learn a lotfrom their wisdom. The sen-iors, Judy, Sue, and the restof the staff are like my sec-ond family and the center ismy second home.”
With the success of thecenter’s first puzzle contest,Jung anticipates to have apuzzle tournament on aweekly basis. Jung is also ea-ger to introduce new pro-grams as well.
“I’m looking to introducenew programs that will stim-ulate, entertain, and informthe seniors. We offer a wide
range of activities that ap-peal to everyone and I’m al-ways open to suggestions,”said Jung.
The puzzle contestbrought people together andwas helpful for motor skills,memory, concentration,recreation, socialization andteamwork. It was a benefi-cial revival of a favorite pas-time.
“I love knitting and cro-cheting because these hob-bies keep my hands andmind busy as I pass the time.I also like puzzles, which I do

Lawmakers voice concerns over Malloy’s budget proposalBy Andrew Ragali
Special to The Citizen
Republican and Democrat-ic state lawmakers fromNorth Haven and throughoutthe area agree that Gov. Dan-nel P. Malloy’s proposed bien-nial budget will be changedduring the legislativeprocess.
“We have a long way to go,”said state Rep. Mary Fritz, D-Wallingford.
Fritz said too much moneywas committed to the state’s
Educational Cost Sharinggrant.
“You’re playing games,”said Fritz of the budget. “Weshouldn’t be playing games.”
Besides her concerns withECS funding, Fritz doesn’tthink there is any need toraise taxes and thinks debtwill be extended by theamount of bonding Malloyoutlined.
“Nobody wants to paymore taxes,” Fritz said.
Many of her argumentsmirrored that of area Repub-lican legislators, who onMarch 18 appeared alongsideSenate Republican LeaderJohn McKinney, R-Fairfield,
at the Wallingford Public Li-brary to discuss Malloy’s pro-posed budget with the public.
Accompanying McKinneyat the forum was state Rep. AlAdinolfi, R-Cheshire, stateSen. Len Fasano, R-NorthHaven , and state Rep. Vin-cent Candelora, R-NorthBranford. Former state Sen.Len Suzio, Wallingford TownCouncil Chairman BobParisi, and Wallingford May-or William W. Dickinson Jr.also attended.
McKinney said that “manyof us feel there is a spendingproblem, not a revenue prob-lem,” specifically citing theamount of funding for educa-
tion and social services inMalloy’s proposal. He saidthat 21 percent of the $20.670billion in appropriated fundsfor fiscal year 2013-14 goes toeducation, with 22 percentgoing to social services.
McKinney said that Mal-loy’s budget increases gener-al fund spending by $1.8 bil-lion, or 9.6 percent, “duringthis time when the state facescontinued deficits, repeatedrevenue deterioration, highunemployment and a nag-ging recession.”
Republicans are also un-happy that Malloy’s proposedbudget breaks the spendingcap by proposing new defini-tions that move about $900million in net new spendingoutside of the spending cap,McKinney said.
There is still much work tobe done on the budget, saidCandelora, who laid out thebudget process for the audi-ence. Candelora said afterthe proposal was released inthe first week of February,both the General Assembly’sAppropriations Committeeand Finance Committee be-gan taking a closer look. TheAppropriations Committeeinspects the spending side ofthe budget, while the Fi-nance Committee reviewsthe revenue side of the budg-et, Candelora said. After bothcommittees pass on their pro-
posed adjustments in mid-to-late April, Candelora said thestate Senate and House ofRepresentatives begin nego-tiations with Malloy in hopesof passing a budget beforeJuly 1.
“This is a very importanttime for us, especially be-cause it’s a two-year budget,”Fasano said.
McKinney said to solvedeficit issues spending needsto be cut.
“There are avenues herewe can spend less and deliverthe same services,” he said.
House Majority LeaderJoe Aresimowicz, D-Berlin,said Malloy’s proposal is justthe “opening volley of thebudget process.”
“I understand whatthey’re doing and I think it’sfine,” Aresimowicz said ofMcKinney and Republicanlegislators’ criticism. “Theyknow that it’s going tochange drastically.”
Aresimowicz acknowl-edged the Republicans’ con-cerns about increased fund-ing to ECS.
There are concerns aboutthe loss of revenue throughmotor vehicle taxation formunicipalities as well, Aresi-mowicz said.
“I’d admit I don’t know mo-tor vehicle property tax is

Costly votingTo the editor:I agree with letter-writer
Sherman Katz on the issueof consolidating voting dis-tricts. Neighborhood votingis a nice convenience, butcostly. The solution to the is-sue of cost is to abolish therecent policy of automaticreferenda and go back to vot-ing at the town meeting,which the town’s chartersets up as our form of gov-ernment. Automatic referen-da are costly and unneces-sary. If enough residentswant to force a referendumfor whatever reason, theyshould have the completefreedom to do so by acquir-ing the necessary number ofsignatures. If there is noneed to have a referendum,then taxpayers would nothave to foot the bill (thou-sands of dollars), and thetown can move on with itsbusiness.

‘They see agoldmine’
To the editor: We have the proposal for
76 apartment units, 23 af-fordable and 53 at marketvalue, to be rented or sold atLexington Gardens on Mid-dletown Avenue. With two,three or four bedrooms, theywill be capable of housingup to 500 people, plus cars.
The infrastructure to sup-port this type of denseapartment development isnon-existent in this strictlyresidential neighborhood, R-40 zoned.
At the March 4 Planning& Zoning Meeting, Commis-sioner James Giulietti askedwhy this area was targetedfor this particular zoningamendment, allowing thistype of development in an R-40 Zone, along a state high-way. The attorney for the de-veloper replied, because ofLexington Gardens and theabundance of additional,
available land off Middle-town Ave.
I guess you know wherethey are going with that an-swer. How many more apart-ments will be built alongthat stretch of MiddletownAvenue if this gets ap-proved? Several hundred, afew thousand?
It is apparent that theysee a goldmine in our lovelyneighborhood and want toexploit it at our expense, fortheir personal gain. Butthey can’t get rich if theyhave to build within our R-40zoning requirement.
The clever part of theirproposal was to throw in af-fordable housing so the statewould get involved when weobject (which we will) tochanging our zone.
The increase in taxes toeducate several hundred ormore pupils, at $9,200.00 perpupil, not counting specialeducation, will be astronom-

An important kindof cleansing
By V. Deborah Culligan
Google the term “coloncleansing” on the internetand you will get many hitsfor products that can helpwith this procedure. Theseproducts promote a myriadof health benefits, with aprimary focus on detoxifi-cation.
The advertisementsclaim colon cleansing (alsoknown as colonic cleans-ing) can (to cite a few): “re-move toxins from blood, or-gans and digestive sys-tems,” “improve overallhealth,” “improve elimina-tion of waste materials,”“reduce auto-intoxification(self-poisoning),” “help youbreathe more easily,” “giveyou healthy, soft andyounger looking skin,and/or “provide a sense ofsatisfaction, greater vitali-ty and a desire to adopt ahealthy lifestyle.”
Or, if you don’t want totake the product, there arealso facilities that you cango to and get your coloncleansed through an irri-gation process similar toan enema, but more power-ful.
The primary question is:does your colon needcleansing? Intertwinedwith the advertisements
for products, you can findsome factual informationabout colon cleansing.
The colon is also knownas the large intestine. It re-moves water and elec-trolytes from digested foodand forms stool. Before amedical examination ofyour colon, known as acolonoscopy, physicians or-der medications that emp-ty your intestines. (In fact,many will say this is theworst part of acolonoscopy!) This cleans-ing is done so that the ex-amination of the colon isunhindered by debris inthe bowel and allows for abetter investigation of thecondition of the colon. It isa cleansing done for a pur-pose.
Overall, most reliablehealth information re-sources do not believe thatyou need to cleanse yourcolon.
Although the concept be-hind this procedure is to“detoxify,” there is little

‘Talent in ourmidst’
To the editor:I attended the Local Au-
thors Showcase & Sympo-sium at the North Haven Li-brary on March 23. I found itentertaining and very in-formative.

Hope-fully, this will become an an-nual event. I think that thiscommunity is very fortunatehaving this level of talent inour midst.

scientific evidence to sup-port that there are con-firmed positive health effectsfrom colon cleansing. In thearticle “Colon cleansing: Is ithelpful or harmful?” (MayoClinic, May 2012), it is notedthat colon cleansing cansometimes be harmful andcause side effects like cramp-ing, bloating, nausea andvomiting. More severe sideeffects can be dehydration,bowel perforation, an in-creased risk of infectionand/or changes in your elec-trolytes.
It should also be noted thatcolon cleansing products arenot regulated by any govern-ment agency, so their compo-sition can’t be verified forcontent, purity or safety.
The human body is prettygood at taking care of itself.The liver and kidneys filtertoxins. The intestines natu-rally eliminate waste materi-al and bacteria. So coloncleansing may not be the so-lution to your health con-cerns. If you have concerns
about your bowel move-ments or other intestinal is-sues, you should consultyour healthcare provider.
If you are concernedabout your health, a mostimportant action you cantake is to get screened forcolon cancer if you are overage 50. The Centers for Dis-ease Control states that col-orectal cancer almost alwaysdevelops from precancerouspolyps (abnormal growths)in the colon or rectum.Screening tests can find pre-cancerous polyps, so thatthey can be removed beforethey turn into cancer.Screening tests can also findcolorectal cancer early, whentreatment works best.Screening for colon cancersaves lives.
This action is more im-portant to your health thancleaning your colon. Somepeople may need screeningearlier than age 50 (or morefrequent). This group in-cludes those who have orhave a close relative who hashad colorectal polyps or col-orectal cancer; those withinflammatory bowel diseaseand those with a genetic syn-
drome such as familial ade-nomatous polyposis.
In addition to screenings,the CDC reports that somestudies suggest that peoplemay reduce their risk of de-veloping colorectal cancerby increasing physical activ-ity, eating fruits and vegeta-bles, limiting Alcohol con-sumption and avoiding to-bacco.
Scientific evidence doesnot support the benefits ofcolon cleansing, but screen-ing for colon cancer doeshave documented data aboutlives saved. Quinnipiack Val-ley Health District residentscan get reprints of articlesabout colon cleansing, alongwith information aboutcolon cancer, by calling theQVHD at (203) 248-4528 orthrough request online atqvhd.org

Commentary
The country bunny’s wishBy Paul Colella
Every year, the staff atNorthHaven’s De-partment ofRecreationholds anEasterEggstrava-ganza thatcelebratesthe holidayand the com-ing of spring. The event isalways well-received andbrings joy, creativity and funfor people of all ages. I dedi-cate this column to EileenPettit, Lynne Cole, JenniferKlein, John Bimonte, RichGaudio, Marc Russo, andAndy DelVecchio for makingthe Eggstravaganza a local,favorite tradition in NorthHaven.
The Easter Bunny comeseach Easter Day before sun-rise to bring eggs for boysand girls, so we think there
is only one. But this is notso. There are really ten East-er Bunnies, and they mustbe the ten kindest, swiftest,and wisest bunnies in thewhole wide world, becausebetween sunset on EasterEve and dawn on EasterMorning, they do more workthan most rabbits do in anentire year.
When one of the EasterBunnies grows old and canno longer run fast, the old,wise, and kind GrandfatherBunny who lives at thePalace of Easter Eggs callthe bunnies together fromall over the world to selectthe very best one to take theplace.
Often a mother bunnysays to her child, “Now ifyou learn to be wise, kind,and fast, some day you maygrow up to be chosen one ofthe Easter Bunnies.” And allof the babies try their verybest, so that they can growup and go to work for the
Grandfather Bunny.One day, a little country-
girl bunny with brown furand a little cotton ball of atail said, “Some day I shallgrow up to be an Easter Bun-ny. Just you wait and see!”
When all of the big whitebunnies and jack rabbitswith long legs who can runso fast heard this, they alllaughed at the little countrybunny and told her to go eata carrot. But she held herhead up high and said, “Justyou wait and see!”
The little country bunnygrew up to be a fine younglady Cottontail. She and herhusband, to their surprise,had twenty-one Cottontailbabies to take care of. Cot-tontail dedicated the nextseveral years taking care ofher baby bunnies. Cottontailtaught her little ones man-ners, responsibility, respect,and kindness. She also gavethem chores to do aroundthe house.
Then one day, when thelittle rabbits were halfgrown up, Cottontail heardtalk among the other rabbitsthat one of the ten EasterBunnies had grown too slowand was stepping down fromhis position, so the Grandfa-ther Bunny invited all theadult bunnies to his palaceso that he could select a re-placement before Easter.Upon hearing the news, Cot-tontail and her bunnies,along with many white rab-bits and jack rabbits, went tosee the Grandfather Bunny.
When they arrived at thePalace of Easter Eggs, therewere bunnies everywhere onthe great lawn. The kindGrandfather stood in thedoorway of the palace andtold the bunnies that werehoping to be the chosenEaster Bunny to show himtheir pretty white fur, howfast they were, and howclever they were. Afterwatching for some time, theGrandfather complimentedall the bunnies on their ap-pearances, speed, and clever-ness, but then he decided totest their kindness. He toldthem about a little girl whowas very sick and lived faraway.
“The journey to this littleone’s home is treacherous.You can travel only by foot,
and you must climb severalmountains and cross a rag-ing river. It’s not an impossi-ble trip, but a very tediousand difficult one. Who iswilling to make this trip?”he asked.
None of the white rabbitsor jack rabbits came for-ward, but Cottontail pushedthrough the crowd and of-fered to go. She expressedthe importance of doingkindness, and now she hadthe chance to help someonein need.
Since no one else cameforward, the Grandfather,with some reservations,gave her an Easter basketfilled with colorful eggs andtreats, and then sent Cotton-tail on her way. After mak-ing the long and tiresomejourney through pastures,forests, mountains, and ariver, she made it to the littlegirl’s cottage. She squeezedthrough the crack of thedoor that had been leftopened just in case the bun-ny had come all that way. Inthe hand of the sleeping lit-tle girl, she placed an egg,and then filled an Easterbasket on a table near thechild’s bed.
Then, just as the EasterMorning sun rose over the

While only ahandful of digits are neededfor typical calculations, Pi’sinfinite nature makes it a funchallenge to memorize, andto computationally calculatemore and more digits.
Pi Day at North HavenHigh School is sponsored byMu Alpha Theta, the mathhonor society. Most Pi Day ac-tivities took place on Friday,March 15, as the actual PiDay was a CAPT testing day.

very compelling argument tome about why they wanted todo this,” Freda said. “At first,I thought they were suggest-ing we do this for generalelections as well. But thenthey clarified that this is justfor referendums, and I washappy.”
“The majority of the feed-back I’ve been getting hasbeen people in support of it,”he added. “In any leadershipposition, you want to be ableto give people opportunity tocome forward with sugges-tions, especially whenthey’re cost-saving sugges-tions. And I wanted to givethem the opportunity to puttheir idea in motion and seehow it goes. Patty and Laurie,they’re experts in this.”

North Haven DemocraticTown Committee ChairmanWalt Spader is in favor ofthe change. “I think itmakes sense,” he said. “Itsaves a lot of money. Elec-tions cost a lot of money torun. And look at the recentturnout numbers. And, inthis way, we wouldn’t havepeople going into schoolswhen schools are in ses-sion.”
“I think the rec center isthe perfect location, becauseit’s centrally located and it’snot a school,” Spader added.“We’ve got the resources togo for this. The registrarsare doing what peopleshould expect of them. Andfor those reasons, I thinkthis is a positive step.”
