Dem wants probe into campaign donations By Jesse Buchanan Record-Journal staff
A Town Council Democrat wants a state elections investigation and outside legal advice on campaign donations from four people connected to a local developer before taking action on the developer’s sewer extension request.
Business owner and developer Frank Fragola wants the council to approve a sewer extension to connect his proposed 31-unit housing subdivision to town sewer and water. His attorney Bryan Meccariello was scheduled to give a presentation to the council on the plan Monday night.
Democrats, who had a majority, opposed Fragola’s plan earlier this year despite Republican support for it. With November’s Republican victory, the GOP took six of the nine council seats. The Republican Town Committee received four $2,000 donations in October from three employees of
Fragola and one man engaged to an employee of Fragola. Two of the four donors didn’t vote in November and none had donated to local political parties in recent years. For two of the donors, occupation and employer information required See Donations, A4

YMCA AWARDS
By Devin Leith-Yessian Record-Journal staff
Shopping among some of the tallest fir trees outside Engine Company 2, Gabby Acquaviva, 7, helped her father Dean Acquaviva pick out just the right ones. “We have a blast, we do it every year,” Dean Acquaviva said while firefighters trimmed one of the two trees they picked out Sunday.

Sgt. Brian Leppard, left, and Officer Chad Butler, of the Southington Police Dept., were announced as recipients of the Youth Development award during a ceremony at the Southington Community YMCA. The award is presented to an individual or group who have worked to nurture the potential of youth and/or teens. Both will be recognized during the YMCA’s 91st annual awards ceremony on Wednesday Feb. 5. Photos by Dave Zajac, Record-Journal
Gabby Acquaviva said her favorite part of picking out a tree is bringing it home to decorate. Firefighter Cecilio Feliciano said helping families pick out a tree makes all the work they do setting up the fundraiser worthwhile. See Tree sale, A2

On Friday, Town Council Chairwoman Victoria Triano, a Republican, said the issue would remain on Monday’s agenda and that the council would hear Meccariello’s presentation. During Monday’s meeting, Triano said Meccariello was out of the country and that he had requested the issue be postponed until January.
Councilor Chris Palmieri, a Democrat and former council chairman, said the council shouldn’t take action on the sewer extension until the donations had been investigated. “Our caucus became very deeply concerned about the appearance of a political favor,” Palmieri said. “We would still request that the State Elections Enforcement Commission take a look in light of the issues

ing up the issue again, Lombardi said. Chris Poulos, a Democratic councilor, said he wanted the donations scrutinized for the council’s protection. “People can start making assumptions and we don’t want that perception of this council,” he said.
On Friday, Triano said she wasn’t aware of the donations and that contributions don’t affect councilors’ decisions.
Fragola’s Laning Street property isn’t in the town’s sewer district. The developer wants the 11 acres connected to town sewer and in compensation will agree to have West Street land he owns removed from the sewer district.
Tom Lombardi, the council vice chairman and a Republican, said there were no allegations of wrongdoing associated with the donations.
He’s proposed an affordable housing development which, under state statute, gives the town less discretion and less ability to deny the plan.

driveway on Dec. 4. The accident happened right in front of her two 10-year-old sons in the early evening. “Just plowed right through him, didn’t stop, just kept going,” Upson said. “We’re wishing someone would come forward and take responsibility.” Police Lt. Steve Elliott said the department is investigating but has little to go on other than the description of a dark-colored car. The driver could be cited or charged if found. Failure to notify the owners of injury or death of a dog is an infraction that carries a $117 fine. Evading responsibility is a misdemeanor and might also apply. A felony animal cruelty charge would require proof that the driver intended to hit the animal. Upson said the dog was coming back from across the street and nearly back onto her Flanders Street property when it was hit. Although she and neighbors rushed the dog to a veterinarian emergency room, Gator died.
Friday, December 13, 2019
Her house is close to the North Main Street intersection and is near a rise in the road. Upton said speeding is a problem. “They had to have been flooring it,” Upton said of the driver that killed her dog. “People fly up that street.” Her daughter Peyton Upson made a poster asking for information on the family dog’s death. The poster is tacked to a tree in their front yard facing Flanders Street.
‘A long shot’ But pet owners may also be liable in cases in which a pet is struck by a motorist, Elliott said. Had the motorist stopped after the accident, Elliott said he might have pressed for an infraction against Upson for damage done to the vehicle. “The owner of the dog is responsible to have their dog leashed and controlled,” Elliott said.

Plan b
Kevin Watson, operations vice president and executive chef of Plan b, talks about the new business under construction at 20 Spring St. in Southington.
From A7
tions vice president and executive chef, said the design elements tie the brand together with other Plan b restaurants as well as Butchers & Bakers in Farmington owned by the Locals 8 restaurant group.
Dave Zajac, Record-Journal
In some cases restaurant designers have gone out of their way to feature industrial elements. Beer tap lines usually connect to the bar through piping in the floor. For the Queen Street restaurant, they’ll run from the back through a large chrome pipe to the bar through a wall and suspended from the ceiling making the pipe visible to customers.
Pizza? Maybe The large brick gas-fired pizza ovens are front and center in the former Bertucci’s restaurant. They’ll be used when the restaurant opens as Plan b, but Watson is advising against offering pizza and instead wants to try flatbreads or other foods in them. He said the final menu decisions haven’t been made. “We’re still in the initial phases of determining what we’re going to do with them,” Watson said. Butchers & Bakers offers a
host of specialty pizzas. If those items were added to the list of burgers Plan b will offer, Watson said that would mean more than 50 menu items before counting any other dishes or appetizers. If there are too many food options, it gets hard for chefs to be able to cook them all well. “It’s about doing fewer things better, not trying to do everything at once,” Watson said. “If we’re going to do it, it needs to be a singular focus.”
Wine on tap The bar will have a wide selection of beers, some of them from Southington brewers such as Kinsmen Brewing and Witchdoctor Brewing Company. It’ll also have wine on tap, something relatively new for many markets. Butchers & Bakers has two or three wines on tap. The Queen Street Plan b will have six draft wines.
means the restaurant can offer high-quality wines at about $1 less per glass. “We can offer a much higher end wine at a better price,” Watson said. He said the restaurant might also offer a draft cocktail, possibly a sangria. Menu and drink items will change as restaurant owners find out what Southington customers want.
“We know we’re going to adWatson said the wine is the just it in the first year, tailor same taste as from a bottle and more efficient packaging it,” Watson said.

More urology As slopes get ready, local ski teams prepare It’s beginning to look more like the ski season is off and running. If Mother Nature cooperates Mount Southington could be open this weekend, but this being New England I recommend calling ahead to make sure. There are several ski areas open in the Northeast with more coming on line every day. A quick check shows that Mohawk Mountain in Cornwall is open along with several resorts in Massachusetts. In Maine, Sugarloaf and Sunday River are among the open ski hills. Over in New Hampshire Bretton Woods, Loon Mountain, Waterville Valley, and Wildcat Mountain are among the runs ready to go. In Vermont, Bromley Mountain, Jay Peak, Mount Snow, Stratton Mountain and Killington have trails ready for skiers.
The girls team has no seniors but three returning juniors with racing experience. Emily Forcade, Marlee Susca and Faith Richert will be back for another season of high school racing. The team has a number of new freshmen including Kylie Brino, who has raced as part of the Mount Southington ski team.

On the boys team, the Blue Knights have three returning seniors. Jake McPhail, Andrew Wong and Caleb Richert all had success on last season’s team.

WHITE CHRISTMAS IN THE COMMUNITY
COMMENTARY
A magical night of old-fashioned cheer By Olivia L. Lawrence The Citizen
Southington put on quite a show Dec. 6 with its annual White Christmas in the Community. Applause should go out to the Village of Plantsville Association and the Merchants of Downtown Southington who put the whole thing together. They’ve created a magical night that kids are sure to remember many, many years from now -- and a family night out everyone can enjoy. For just three brief hours, Southington and Plantsville take a step back in time. A time when there were no malls, no Amazon, no pressure to be bigger, better, glitzier. The event has been going on since 1988, in one form or another. Not many places around here manage to host a big to-do in the fall, like the Apple Harvest Festival, and then turn around and hold another as winter begins. That takes a lot of cooperation amongst many domains. Mother Nature really cooperated this year. The weather

was relatively mild, just enough chill to feel Christmas-y but not enough to freeze fingers and toes, at least not for an hour or so. There was about a threequarters moon, clear skies and barely a breeze. A nice layer of snow made the village green and rails to trails
The downtown layout must be the envy of many towns when it comes to hosting this kind of gathering. Southington has not one, but two, areas that can be blocked off for pedestrian only traffic. One with the beautiful center green and the other with a lively commercial block with lots of

CLASS LL FOOTBALL SEMIFINALS
Once more, the blues
Darien continues its postseason mastery of Southington By Ron Buck Special to the Record-Journal
SOUTHINGTON — The Southington football team played championship defense Monday night at Fontana Blue Wave 21 Field. But the Blue Blue Knights 12 Knights won’t be celebrating a state championship. Darien, which boasts one of the state’s best defenses itself, beat the No. 2 seeded Blue Knights 21-12 in Monday night’s Class LL semifinals. It was the third straight time the third-seeded Blue Wave have gotten the better of the Blue Knights in the postseason. Darien also handed Southington its two defeats of 2019. Like the first encounter in Week 2 of this season, a 24-8 Darien win, the Southington

strong effort. The teams played a scoreless third quarter, though Southington had the better chances to take the lead after intercepting Darien quarterback Peter Graham twice in the quarter. But when the Blue Wave scored on the first play of the fourth quarter to take a 21-12 lead, it felt as though the two-score lead would hold up. And it did. Southington got the ball five times in the fourth quarter and never crossed midfield. Darien (11-1) advances to play top-seeded Newtown (12-0) in Saturday’s Class final. Southington’s season ended at 10-2.
