NECCOG moves regional referrals and requests testimony pushing for stable funding
Summary
Members moved to approve STIP amendments and two regional referrals (Killingly zone map change and Thompson zoning updates); the Director was authorized by motion to submit a testimony letter urging maintenance or increase of regional funding. The transcript records motions and seconds but does not include recorded vote tallies.
During the meeting NECCOG considered STIP actions and regional referrals. A motion to approve the REG 70 AMD PACKAGE (01.28.2025) was made by Barney Seney and seconded by Allan Cahill; the motion and second are recorded in the transcript but no vote tally or formal outcome is shown.
Regional referrals included an application from the Town of Killingly (Appl. #25-1345) seeking to change a 0.43-acre parcel owned by the Dayville Fire District from Medium Density to Village Commercial to match neighboring parcels, and an annual update from the Town of Thompson Planning and Zoning Commission (PZC #25-02) proposing amendments to Thompson’s zoning regulations. Barney Seney moved to approve the referrals as presented; Austin Tanner seconded. The transcript does not record the final vote count for those motions.
At the CEO Roundtable, the Director and Luigi Sartori (Northeast District Department of Health) participated in discussion. Madam Chair Maureen Nicholson moved and Chris Lippke seconded a motion directing the Director to submit a letter of testimony advocating for the maintenance or increase of regional-program funding; the transcript records the motion and second but not a roll-call or tally.
Next steps: staff were directed to prepare the testimony letter for submission and to document outcomes of the STIP and referral items in the minutes.
