Board of Selectpersons (Regular Meeting) - 11/2/2026

The FairTV Board of Selectpersons’ regular meeting was held November 2, 2026. The board approved a contract for the Fairfield Police Department office renovation under bid 2026-58, awarding the project to the low bidder, identified in the transcript as APi Construction Company, Inc., for a total of $2,782,125. The authorization also covered necessary change orders within available project funds. Staff described a two-phase renovation, with the second-floor work planned first and the lobby work to follow. The board also considered a 10-year cell-tower lease amendment with New Singular Wireless PCS LLC/AT&T Mobility for the town site at 3965 Congress Street: $40,000 per year, with annual 3% compounding increases beginning July 1, 2028, through June 30, 2036. The transcript does not clearly capture the vote on that lease item. The board approved stormwater drainage easements associated with a four-lot subdivision at Mill Hill Terrace; the easement agreement included the town and OI Asset Connecticut Southport LLC, an Omega Healthcare Investors entity.

The Public Works director presented an update on roadway safety, including Fairfield’s Safe Streets for All grants ($350,000 for planning and $300,000 for demonstration projects), crash and speed data, and the finalized safety action plan. No vote was taken on the presentation. Road-safety capital projects removed from the capital plan by the Board of Finance are currently on hold, with the town planning to consider using speed-camera revenue to advance them, subject to further discussion and appropriation. The board emphasized neighborhood outreach and public feedback before future project decisions. No other procurement awards were identified.
