Middletown Open Space Referendum Passes



Today voters overwhelmingly approved a referendum to give $2 million for open space preservation in Middletown, which is one-third of the total since the state of Connecticut will match an additional $4 million.

This is great news for conservation in Connecticut, as the state has the highest rate of development. Eighteen acres of land are lost to development every day!
