Planting and zoning P&Z mulls amendment to allow for medical marijuana facilities By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER
Newington is one of a handful of Connecticut towns getting a jump-start on accommodating the state’s nascent medical marijuana industry. The state legislature this week approved the Department of Consumer Protection’s draft regulations to license the production and distribution of the drug. Soon after, town officials discussed amending zoning regulations to accommodate the historic change. Volume 53, No. 34

Town Planner Craig Minor presented the Town Plan & Zoning Commission with his draft of a proposed amendment at its meeting Wednesday night and it will likely be considered by public hearing mid-fall. “What the commission has decided is now that the state has adopted medical marijuana regulations, we should amend our zoning regulations to address them — so if someone applies for a state permit to open a facility we’ll have regulations to suit it,” Minor explained. The impetus for the proposed zoning change was a phone call Minor received about a month ago, from a Newington property See AMENDMENT, Page 8

New school year brings smaller classes, new facilities and tighter security By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER
As Newington students hopped off buses and strolled into school Tuesday morning on the first day of the 2013-14 school year, little did they know how busy staff has been to prepare for their return.
The two-month break wasn’t all fun in the sun for teachers and administrators, who worked hard on a number of new initiatives that will be implemented throughout the school year. Some were created in-part due to statemandated education reform and others — the result of col-
laboration between Newington officials. Middle school students at Martin Kellogg had their first look at the newly-renovated exploratory Science, Technology, Engineering and Math wing (STEM), the first step in the bioSee SCHOOLS, Page 9

Long-vacant gas station now up and running Newly renovated station fills neighborhood need on Fenn Road By ERICA SCHMITT STAFF WRITER
A long-vacant gas station on Fenn Road is now back in business and doing well, according to the new owner. Drivers who frequent the busy road may have noticed a flurry of American flags and other decorations go up a little over two weeks ago when the new station opened its doors and turned on its pumps. “I’m really surprised this was vacant for so long,” said Town Planner Craig Minor, who couldn’t find any town record confirming when the address was last occupied. It’s been at least 15 years according to Town Planning and Zoning Commission members, who approved the application in March of this year. While the last owner operated a gas station and performed basic mechanic services, new owner Mahmood Khalid, a Hartford resident, renovated the bays to make way for a retail space. He owns five
other convenience store/gas stations across the state, including several in the Bristol region. His brand, “Gasman,” isn’t affiliated with any of the big-name fuel companies, which is why, he said, he can keep prices a few cents lower. “Gasman has its own trademark; we sell unbranded gas,” Store Manager Mohammad Butt explained Tuesday. “The distributor sells us whatever gas is cheapest at the time — that’s why we are able to stay inexpensive.” That might be Mobil, Exxon, Texaco, Shell, or any of the other brands. But for residents living in the surrounding neighborhoods — including the nearby Woodlands condominiums and Fenn-Woode Apartments — location is everything. Store clerk Mohammad Ali says neighbors have expressed their gratitude that the place is finally up and running again. In order to fuel up close to home in the past, those

They do offer a few extra food items including frozen pizza, prepared meals and four different brands of ice cream.

The Newington Children’s Theatre Company is now taking audition appointments for its upcoming all-teen (ages 13 to 18) fall musical, “The Wedding Singer,” Sept. 5 and 6. Callbacks are scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 8. Teens are asked to prepare an uptempo musical theatre song, as well as, a comedic monologue. Audition forms are available for download at www.NCTCArts. org. Rehearsals begin Sept. 9 and run through Oct. 24. Performances are Oct. 25 -27 (Friday and Saturday at 7 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m. Please note: while there is no cost to audition, if cast, there is a $250 participation fee. Based on the popular 1998 movie of the same name, “The Wedding Singer” takes us back to a time when hair was big, greed was good, collars were up, and a wedding singer might just be the coolest guy in the room. It’s 1985 and rock-star wannabe Robbie Hart is New Jersey’s favorite wedding singer. He’s the life of the party, until his own fiancée leaves him at the altar. Shot through the heart, Robbie makes every wedding as disastrous as his own. Enter Julia, a winsome waitress who wins his affection. As luck would have it, Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and unless Robbie can pull off the performance of a decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever. All rehearsals and performances will take place at the NCTC Performing Arts Theatre located at 743 North Mountain Road in Newington.

Bonefish also prides itself on its “big-city bar” which offers unique hand-muddled fruit martinis and an eclectic beer and wine list. Servers, or “anglers” as Bonefish calls them, are happy to suggest harmonious food and wine pairings, too. In stark contrast to most bustling national chains, Bonefish is surprisingly refined. The sea theme is reflected on the walls with artwork from Gyotaku artist Burt Lancaster, who uses real fish to make prints on rice paper. And even though the large parking lot has been jammed nightly since Newington’s Bonefish opened, it’s not the kind of place that demands shouting dinner conversation. Despite a lively atmosphere and a full dining room, the buzz of the crowd seems muted as patrons try a variety of inventive items. This effect is accomplished through the use of sound-absorbent ceiling tiles, insisted upon by Bonefish’s founders. The opening represents one of a few recent economic development

Crusty bread served mid-meal alongside a pungent pesto and a menu that lists prices in short decimals: characteristics one might use to distinguish a quaint, A-list eatery from a big-name chain restaurant. But maybe it’s that attention to detail at the Bonefish Grill that merits the St. Petersburg, Florida-based restaurant’s expansion to 187 locations since it was founded in 2000. Connecticut’s second location opened at 2903 Berlin Turnpike in Newington last Monday and has already seen booming business. National favorites like “Bang Bang Shrimp” — crispy, fried shrimp tossed in a spicy chili aioli — shine. But seasonal specialties also stand out, including a crab-crusted orange roughy — flaky, succulent and served simply, with a white wine sauce and garlicky whipped potatoes. Market-fresh fish is filleted by hand daily and treated to a house

owner expressing interest in opening a distribution facility. “Because we didn’t have regulations that allowed it, it was a catch 22,” he said. Although the interested individual drafted his own petition of an amendment, Minor asked him to withdraw it upon consultation with TPZ members. “The commission’s feeling was that they would rather be in control of the amendment process,” he said, adding, “I gave him a copy of what I was going to suggest to the commission, and it was very similar to what he had drafted.” The draft proposal was written in accordance with Public Act 12-155, which requires distribution and production facilities to be independent of each other. Applicants would be subject to conditional Special Exception approval by TPZ, so they must obtain a permit from the State Department of Consumer Protection before plans are finalized. Marijuana dispensaries would be permitted in business, industrial and public land zones, while production facilities would only be allowed in industrial-zoned areas of town.

within 1,000 feet of places of religious worship, public buildings, private recreation areas, schools, playgrounds, parks or day care programs. In addition, producers must be further than 750 feet from single-family residential neighborhoods. While the imagination might lend itself to artsy, psychedelic pot shops in the Berlin Turnpike’s foreseeable future, that’s not likely to be the case. The draft the commission is considering also regulates exterior signage, with a street address the only text permitted and graphics out of the question. Torrington, Canton and Southington have already adopted new zoning regulations in anticipation of state regulations being approved. Minor took these into consideration in drafting Newington’s amendment, which he says, “attempts to strike a balance between the legal rights of an applicant and the legitimate concerns of area residents.” TPZ will consider the draft at its next meeting Sept. 11 and following commissioners’ approval, the petition will be considered in a public hearing.

medical academy to open next fall. John Wallace’s Aerospace Academy will open in 2015. “We’re pretty excited about those,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Bill Collins, who hired a total of 15 new school staff over the summer, including one instructional coach for each school building. “Because of the recession, we had to eliminate a lot of positions, so with these new hires, our class sizes are back down to comfortable levels,” he added. “We’re very pleased about that.” The instructional coaches will assist in the town’s transition into the Common Core Curriculum, which all schools across Connecticut are implementing. The state joins 46 others nationwide with a collective goal of presenting all students the same opportunities. “This is big,” Dr. Collins said. “Teachers still have freedom and flexibility to teach how they feel they need to, but the standards will be the same in 47 states so it really levels the playing field.” Connecticut school districts are also required to begin a new teach-
er evaluation procedure to increase student achievement. Aside from what was asked of them by the State Department of Education, Newington school officials had their own improvements in mind as well. The library at Newington High was renovated to offer students more spaces to collaborate, and the first phase of the music wing renovation was also completed. In an effort to move further from print materials and deeper into the digital age, school officials are also trying to secure enough computing devices for each student to have their own. One thing that’s been at the forefront of parents’ minds as the new year begins is school security, and Newington is ahead of the game there, too. Significant surveillance improvements were made, with the addition of many more exterior and interior cameras and panic buttons in each facility. Students and teachers will notice an increased police presence as well, with two additional officers hired to patrol school grounds on a daily basis.

Local News Opinion
A ‘thank you’ to all who attended the Candlelight Ceremony at the Iwo Jima Memorial Hello Dear Friends,
Gary Roy and I would like to say a quick, but huge thank you to all of you who helped with the Candlelight Ceremony. We still need to recover and I am back to work, but we hope to catch up more later. I think everyone who attended walked away feeling that this was such a great way to remember all our special heroes. It is because of all of you who contributed to make it happen. We can’t thank you
enough. We hope everyone will spread the word and we grow bigger year by year. There are many veterans that deserve to be remembered in this way. There is strength in numbers. Thank you to all our presenters, those who worked behind the scenes and to those who attended. Please share our thoughts with others you know who helped but for whom I don’t have email. Marianne Mihalyo and Gary Roy
CRCOG grant for Garfield reconstruction should focus on road safety, not parking To the editor:
In the Aug. 22 edition of another newspaper, Democratic Town Councilor Borjeson is quoted as saying about the Garfield Reconstruction Grant, in part, “the primary emphasis was on parking.” At the July 9 Town Council meeting, the town engineer identified that the grant funding was through the Capitol Region of Council of Government, STP Urban Application Surface Transportation Program and that “the State is probably not going to participate in funds for parking” and “we are selling as a road reconstruction project.” The grant application project rating includes “Traffic Improvement: Flow, Safety & Geometrics” and weighted
this area of importance as 15 points. It further asked about a traffic study and wanted documentation on how many accidents occurred in the last three years and how many of those would the proposed project have eliminated. The Town Engineer indicated “there was a safety issue we are looking to incorporate the three roads around the Town Hall” and that “the three roads around the Town Hall are all State roads and that is one of the selling points of the project that Garfield Street used to be a state road.” So at least some working with this CRCOG grant have recognized the importance of road safety, even if it is primarily about parking for others. Maureen H. Klett Republican Town Councilor

The guest demonstrator will be Bob DeBartolo a self-taught artist who works in pastels, acrylics and collage. His experience in operating a small print shop led him to explore his deep connection to color and
its limitless possibilities. This passion with color and his knowledge and use of inks led to experimenting with monotypes and the creation of a new technique using diluted inks. This method requires the ability to “pour” inks on paper to create landscapes and flowers. The Newington Art League meets on the second Wednesday of September, October, November, March, April and May. Each meeting includes a brief business meeting followed by a demonstration in one of the visual arts. This year the Newington Art League has scheduled fall demonstrations for Oct. 9 Bob Norieka, watercolor or acrylic and Nov. 13 Judy Tourangeau — caricatures. Spring demonstrations are being planned for March 12, April 8 and May 14. The league also holds a holiday party in December and a picnic in the summer. The Newington Art League continues to hold open workshops for members on Monday mornings 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. and Tuesday evenings 6 to 9:30 p.m. at the league’s new location, 679 Willard Ave. These free workshops offer members an opportunity to paint in any medium and share the experience of other artists. The league holds an annual spring art show at the town hall in conjunction with the town wide art show. The league also participates in the Newington Extravaganza, the Waterfall Festival and awards an annual scholarship to Newington High School Senior on Scholarship Night. Membership in the Newington Art League is open to all. The requirements are simply an interest in the visual arts and a willingness to be an active participant in the league’s activities. Membership offers artists the opportunity to show work in the league’s shows and exhibits, vote on league business and hold office in the league. Officers for the 2013-2014 year are Co-Presidents Pat Tanger and Mike Hornyak, Co-Vice Presidents, Celestine Bernard and Ellen Shuman, Treasurer Flo Dickie, and Co-Secretaries Pat Tanger and Mike Hornyak.
