Fairfield officials and residents debated the renovation plans for Fairfield High School and Roger Ludlowe Middle School to become two high schools. They urged budget discipline, cautioning that deferred costs can backfire with lower state reimbursements and rising long term expenses.
Town leaders question an 89 million price tag for school projects and push to halve expenses. Finance board member Joe Santangelo notes 20 million spent to modernize Ludlowe and urges cost ranges of 40 to 50 million for the two high schools. First Selectman Kenneth Flatto backs a cost review subcommittee as the economy falters.
Fairfield will receive 594,804 more state funds in 2002 03, raising total aid to over 6.6 million for schools roads university reimbursements and local capital projects. Officials cite ECS formula fairness concerns and reforms as a priority led by State Sen. John McKinney and Chief Fiscal Officer Paul Hiller.
