CT MADISON — The Affordable Housing Committee discussed public concerns about a proposed Affordable Housing Trust Fund, with Michael Kaminsky, chair, along with members Mark Edmiston and Richard Talentino, emphasizing that the fund can operate through multiple financing mechanisms beyond tax receipts and any town funding would require transparent public meetings of the Town Finance Committee and Board of Selectmen. The committee also discussed a proposed cluster housing development of 18 market rate homes on Mill and River Roads. A public hearing on the fund is scheduled for August 24.
