The board approved up to $4,000 in travel expenses for Captain Joseph Ferenga and Deputy Chief Walsh to attend the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference in Denver, Oct. 17–21, 2025; staff said airfare will be booked after board approval.

The Board of Selectmen unanimously approved on Sept. 23 a travel request from the New Canaan Police Department authorizing expenses not to exceed $4,000 for Captain Joseph Ferenga and Deputy Chief Walsh to attend the International Association of Chiefs of Police annual conference in Denver, Colorado, Oct. 17–21, 2025.

Police staff told the board they had not yet booked airfare and are awaiting the board’s approval to proceed; they said the department has reserved hotel rooms but would not incur airfare charges until after the authorization. One selectman noted that the quoted $300 airfare fare seemed a good deal if still available.

The request was approved with the condition that total travel expenses not exceed the $4,000 authorized amount. The motion carried by unanimous vote.
