As Danbury prepares to bond $130M for a cancer center, the company asks for more time to build

Feb 17, 2026 | Uncategorized

DANBURY – As the city calls a special meeting on Tuesday about a $130 million bonding package to finance a westside cancer center that has been beset by years of delay, the company is asking Danbury to extend construction approvals which run out this summer. “The city would not be subject to repayment or liability on the bonds,” Mayor Roberto Alves wrote to the 21-member City Council, which is expected on Tuesday to set a public hearing for Feb. 25 to discuss the bonding. “(O)ur partnership would enable the development and operation of a revolutionary, life-saving cancer treatment center to open in Danbury.” Alves, who announced in mid-December that the Stage 4 cancer he was diagnosed with before the November election was “virtually gone,” has been one of the strongest supporters of the center, known as Danbury Proton.
