On Nov. 3 daylight savings time will end, and we will set our clocks back one hour. During this time of year, it is a good reminder to replace the batteries in our smoke alarms—change your clock / change your batteries.

On Sept. 3 the Parks and Recreation Board held its regular monthly meeting. The board meets on the first Tuesday of each month and the agenda includes a standing segment for public comment and input. Typically, there is next to no public engagement in these board meetings. However, this meeting sharply broke trend with a significant and enthusiastic showing of public interest in pickleball.
The Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services has again prioritized vaping as a Connecticut initiative.
