Avon council approves contracts, appointments and routine business in Jan. 8 meeting
Summary
Council approved two-year contract extensions for the town's insurance agent, municipal advisor and bond counsel; accepted resignations and filled multiple boards and commissions posts; set a Feb. 7 budget work session and adjourned at 9:03 p.m.
The Avon Town Council on Jan. 8 approved multiple contract extensions, reappointments and routine governance matters in a largely procedural portion of its meeting.
Votes included a two-year contract extension with USI Insurance Services as the town's insurance agent of record, an extension with Phoenix Advisors as municipal advisor, and an extension with Robinson + Cole as bond counsel; all passed unanimously. The Council accepted resignations (including a Board of Finance resignation) and appointed or reappointed members to a range of town boards and committees, including the Board of Finance, Zoning Board of Appeals (alternate), Planning & Zoning Commission, Inland Wetlands Commission, Recreation & Parks Committee, Water Pollution Control Authority and others. The Council tabled appointments to the Affordable Housing Task Force and the Central Regional Tourism District to the Feb. 5 meeting.
Council also set a hybrid Budget Work Session for Feb. 7, 2026, and approved a motion to accept the December 4, 2025 minutes. On a motion by Ms. Ausiello and seconded by Mrs. Barthel, the Council adjourned at 9:03 p.m.
Because these items were largely procedural, no substantive policy changes were enacted beyond the previously noted items on pay ranges, vehicle depreciation and the Senior Center project.
