WPCA Stratford- Get Answers
Stratford's Town Council will hear residents on the sale of a $50 million Stratford's Water Pollution Control Authority (WPCA) to the Greater New Haven Water Pollution Control Authority (GNHWPCA) for $11 million. The town council vote is Wed, April 20. The mayor wants to cover budgeting failures unrelated to the WPCA -- at fire sale of town assets. GNHWPCA has projected increased costs on end users to cover ours and their debt to buy facility. If the sale proceeds we will lose of control of our sewer fees, control of the long-term redevelopment of our town; while we surrender control of our state-of-the-art efficient, cost-effective, self-funding WPCA system. The mayor should convince the residents, not just 7 council members.

Why is this important?
To: the Mayor, Town Council, WPCA members, and officials of Startford CT, and the GNHWPCA:
• We don't see a public good in the regionalization with the New Haven Authority.
• We don't want unanswered questions followed by a rubber stamp vote that surrenders our rights forever.
• We will be at town hall on April 20 to let our voice be heard to stop this vote for a fire sale of Stratford's assets.
• We will move forward to a referendum if the vote is yes.
• "We" are citizens, voters, comprised of Republicans, Democrats and Independents,
• We represent Stratfords' families, Business, Civic Organizations, residents. All are WPCA users and investors,
• We are the voices that speak with one voice: Don't surrender the assets and control of our 100-year public investment in an efficient, cost-effective, WPCA system.
