Saturday’s referendum made one thing clear: a majority of the residents who turned out voted “no” on the summertime leaf blower ban. Yet, we were told our voices didn’t clear an arbitrary hurdle high enough to overturn the Town Council’s previous action. This ordinance does nothing to foster community harmony. Instead, it pits neighbors against one another, introduces unnecessary costs for homeowners, and ignores the tidal wave of non-emergency police calls it will invite.

Dear Editor,

Many have stopped me to ask why I voted “no” on the Charter Revision Commission Report, and I would like to explain why. I firmly believe in a government created by the many, not the few. I firmly believe the voters of New Canaan should choose their own government, and that checks and balances, along with accountability to the electorate, are critical. Yet after eight months of discussion and listening, I saw appointed, self-interested officials protect their own positions instead of being accountable to the people they serve.

Proponents of the Gas-powered Leaf Blower Ban distributed a list of rapid-fire “FACTS.” But listing half-truths on a flyer doesn’t make them a sound policy. Here is the full picture before you vote on July 25th:
