Stratford adopts new charter creating board of finance

Stratford moves toward a commission form of government by creating a town board of finance. The measure, endorsed by Representative J. Weney, transfers powers from the selectmen to a six-member finance board, with a first selectman as chair but limited voting rights. The bill outlines election terms, duties, sinking funds, budgeting, and public oversight, setting procedures for annual and special town meetings and property assessments.
