West haven Coucil-at-Large

I think it is long overdue to unite our fire departments. There is not a reason in the world to have 3 fire districts in a city as small as ours. It's time for a new vote for this and we all, as West Havener's, have to unite to consolidate the departments. Just think, this might save taxpayer's money.

A friend of mine Gary got mugged by 10 to 15 African American youths on july 4th early approximately 11pm. Gary is the nicest fellow and would not harm a flea. I am not sure if the Casa Bianca pizza place got any footage as they do have camera. Gary is recovering after being hospitalized with head trauma, ear canal puncture and other injuries. We need guaridna angels in west haven center/beach area or more walking patrols

Since July 3, the day of the "invasion" (the WHPD's words) of throngs of slobs who come to West Haven to watch the fireworks and, ostensibly, to celebrate their country's independence anniversary, every day since then there has been one and only one trash can on the corner of Beach St and Morse Ave. And each of those days, by early evening, while there are still many people on the beach, the trash can has looked like this: overflowing with garbage. The trash is collected the following morning, but that's not before some of that trash has found its way into the gutter, and the storm drain, and back out to the Sound. It's also unsightly and unsanitary. Public Works has chosen to put too few trash cans in this area, as it is, which is unconscionable given how many people flock to this area. The Savin Beach parking lot has ZERO trash cans in it (while I counted 6 in the parking lot behind the conference center this morning). Also, much of this trash contains recyclable materials -- at least a third of it is recyclabe -- which is reason enough to put a recycling container at this corner as well. Oh, here's another reason why West Haven needs to do more about recycling: it's state law. But don't take my word for it, visit http://www.ct.gov/deep/cwp/view.asp?a=2714&q=324896. Despite this law, West Haven refuses to comply with it, nor does it require its contracted trash hauler to comply with it.

There is a ton of garbage, both in the brush on the edges of the beach, and on the beach itself down at this end of West Haven's shoreline. All sorts of paper, plastic, and unmentionables. This is one small sample of a widespread issue.

The First Ave neighborhood residents between Main st and the Water Treatment plant are outraged.. Speeding cars and cars passing into oncoming traffic or lanes on first ave is unbelievable. We clocked a low-rider type car doing 95MPH at 3pm today passing another car by the West Haven Yacht Club heading toward the beach. The speeding and lane passing needs to be policed better. Its only a matter of time before we have a major accident like the elderly woman that was fatally hit by Chicks.
