Bob Wagman discussed the status of the flooding issues. Bob said things were moving along fast. Approval for the Watershed study which will cost about $200,000 and cover the 5 mile river in Darien and Rowayton as well as Norwalk is one approval away per Larry Cafaro. Mayor Moccia has called a meeting of 5 mile river residents who wish to make repairs to the river banks now. He would expedite permits. Next step is hiring firm to do the study. WNA will be involved to insure repairs done correctly. Will also recommend they look at 1990 study as well.
