By way of tradition, I have used my November update as a “year-in-review.” It’s a great way to share with residents our accomplishments and keeps me accountable for the goals I’ve set.

The Town’s process toward providing decent quarters for its administrative departments has been long and uncertain. The existing Town Hall opened in 1962 as an improvement on the previous building, which was built during the Civil War. There have been many significant changes and expansions to the 1962 building, including making offices out of the large conference room that originally occupied the west end of the second floor and the installation of an elevator. The Police Department moved out into new quarters on Mountain Road, freeing space for the growing needs of the town. More recently, several functions were removed into rented space in one of the Laureno warehouses on Ffyler Place and in the new office building at 230 Mountain Road, where the First Selectman’s office, the Finance office, all the building departments and Human Resources are now located.
There will be a Veterans’ Day Ceremony at the Suffield’s Veterans’ Memorial on Sunday, November 11 at 11 a.m. honoring those military who have served our country.
