City lays out goals for 2009
NORWICH – The City of Norwich held its organizational meeting Monday night, laying out goals and objectives for the coming year.
Mayor Joseph Maiurano thanked the council and the department heads for all of their hard work over the year. “They’re up to the challenges that lie ahead in the coming year,” he said.
Maiurano explained that one priority for the year will be to work more closely with the Planning and Zoning Boards. “Todd Dreyer (planning and community development specialist) will be working on ways to market the city to businesses,” Maiurano said. He explained that Dreyer will be referring to the City’s Comprehensive Plan to determine what the city needs. “Even at this economic time, there are businesses that are looking at the area,” Maiurano said in an earlier discussion.
The Mayor asked Third Ward Alderman John Deierlein to act as the liaison between the Planning Board and the Council.
Second Ward Alderman Terry Bresina was nominated to fill the position of President of the Council. The council president fulfills the duties of the mayor in his absence.
Sixth Ward Alderman Robert Jeffrey was nominated to fill the position of Acting Mayor. The acting mayor fulfills the duties of the mayor if both the mayor and the council president are absent.
“Terry and Bob have been great in these positions. I’m able to utilize them, and I appreciate the work they’ve done,” Maiurano said.
During the meeting, the mayor also distributed his goals for the year, which included providing an effective forum of self-government, providing for public health and safety, stimulating economic development and planning for the long term future of the city.
Maiurano said the city will continue to be active in pushing for legislation from the state to help local municipalities. Shared services and consolidation will also continue to be a priority, Maiurano explained.
