Funding Secured For Bridgeport

December 22, 2021

Lamont for prioritizing this item. Remington Arms in particular is really special. My advocacy has always been focused on connecting neighborhoods. Remington Arms has not only been an eyesore for some time, but it also diminished the value of other property in the area. It especially hurt any prospects for development of the parcel across the street near the railroad tracks. This will allow us to develop and grow our east side connect more directly with our east end neighbors and have even more to offer. As a concert, family venue and home of the Greater Bridgeport Symphony and other orchestras, activities at the Klein Memorial enrich lives for Bridgeport and Connecticut residents.

I thank Governor Ned Lamont, Speaker Matt Ritter, Majority Leader Jason Rojas and Representative Dorinda Borer for their support of this funding and look forward to the remediation improvements.
