Good News: Funds from the State Legislature

"Another paragraph addressed $2.5 million in off-site costs related to the construction of a permanent home for the Engineering & Science University Magnet School (ESUMS) across the town line in West Haven. The $2.5 million related to off-site improvements, such as straightening out a road and adding a left-hand turning lane, Weisselberg said. Off-site improvements are not usually considered eligible for reimbursement by the state; the legislature deemed those costs eligible for reimbursement after all."  (http://www.newhavenindependent.org/index.php/archives/entry/gee_thanks_folks/)
