Middletown officials urge voters to understand $59 million bond questions before Election Day

Voters will consider whether Connecticut should amend its constitution to permit anyone to vote by absentee ballot, whether to renovate and expand 100-year-old Macdonough Elementary School, and whether to construct a new emergency operations center. Central Communications is the 911 service provider for Middletown and Portland. The anticipated project is a rebuild of the one-room public safety office at the Cross Street firehouse. If approved, the center would move to the emergency operations facility at 499 Mile Lane and co-located with the old U.S. Army Reserve Center. “There are questions that people need to understand that are going to have an impact on the long-term prosperity and future of our community,” Florsheim said during a news conference Friday at City Hall. “Voting is not the only part of civic engagement, but it is the fundamental basis for our democracy,” the mayor added.
