Inland Wetlands Agency (Regular Meeting) - 9/2/2026

The Inland Wetlands Agency of the Town of Fairfield held a regular meeting on September 2, 2026, focusing primarily on environmental and infrastructure projects within regulated wetland areas. Key procurement-related discussions included the review and approval of applications for construction and stormwater management improvements, such as the Taminsky property additions and the Town of Fairfield Engineering Department's storm system improvements at Lake Mohegan parking lot and Morehouse Highway. The agency approved these projects with conditions, including relocating a proposed propane tank and implementing wetland buffer enhancements. The Engineering Department presented a detailed stormwater infrastructure upgrade project designed to mitigate flooding issues, with plans to issue bids in September and commence construction in the fall, pending funding and approvals. Additionally, the agency addressed bond releases related to demolition and construction activities and denied a fee waiver request for a drainage modification application. Legal enforcement updates were provided on ongoing cases involving wetlands violations. No new contracts or vendor selections were explicitly discussed, but the meeting included significant capital improvement project approvals and related budget considerations.
