Tonight's meeting didn't produce much in way of action by the Council. The most important things we saw tonight was the Mayor's reading of the proclamation that acknowledges Veteran's Day. So was it necessary to go through the formalities of proclaiming Stratford in Observance of Labor Day? My answer is yes, of course. Even better was that the veteran's in attendance who stood proudly in front of the town as the mayor read the proclamation. As I grow up and grow older I continue to find humility when I am among my friends, relatives and neighbors that have served our country.
The business section of the meeting was fairly short, we paid our bills and made put a used police cruiser up for sale. The public portion generated as much content as the agenda: A resident wants us to look forward to a new world order, another wants us to remember that we're obligated to do something about redevelopment.
That's a great point, and a big reason why I wanted to become a councilman. I am convinced that our town's potential remains untouched, and we will be able to turn a corner. I hope it's sooner than later, but it will take hard work, commitment, trust and a generous dose of good luck. I hope it wasn't luck that got me elected, but I'll take whatever I can to keep Stratford moving forward.
