About 20 members gathered at Kathryn Tohir’s house for quiche and conversation. Everyone presented ideas for exploring through study groups or programming.
Our Board members will get to work on defining ways for us to look at least a few of the issues below, and they welcome volunteers to serve on committees.
If you did not respond to the email survey sent earlier, there's still time to respond. Please pick the top four issues that are most important to you from this list:
State budget
Term limits
Education
Groundwater quality
Home energy conservation and sources
Town energy supply
Abortion rights
Open space management
Stress
There was one proposed study: How effective is New Canaan's recycling? What do other towns do? Are there improvements that should be made in the way our town and our residents reduce, reuse and recycle solid waste?
Are you interested in having the League study this? Are you interested in learning more about joining such a study group?
We also identified some existing positions that can be acted upon. Sue Stone will be doing some education in the community about the importance of sleep, for example, and would welcome people to work with her if anyone finds this of interest.
