Board Acts Tuesday On Museum Funds

The Board of Finance will meet Tuesday at 8 p.m. in the town courtroom to consider a 15000 appropriation for the Mid-Fairfield County Youth Museum on Woodside Road to cover current operating shortfalls. The school board asked the finance board to approve the extra payment for service contracts and to act as agent before the Representative Town Meeting, noting the past fee underrepresents the museum’s value to the district. The school system anticipates requesting 30000 for museum support next fiscal year pending a state enabling act. Parish notices and Sunday service times follow for Greens Farms, Saugatuck, Community Methodist, First Unitarian, St Paul Lutheran, First Church of Christ Scientist, Christ and Holy Trinity, Church of the Assumption, and St Luke.
