Attend Public Hearing on Port Authority Problem

Public Hearing on proposed exclusive use of State Pier by one industry...HOLIDAY INN, NEW LONDON 5:30 PM Tuesday 9/17/19

N L Port Authority tries to restrict CT Pier Area to just One user

No other industries will be able to utilize the Port of New London State Pier for over 10 years. TOTALLY UNFAIR !!

The following Statement says it all:"Allowing one

client to completely occupy a harbor requires more study, more public
input and, certainly, more confidence in the officials tasked with
finalizing the details before this long-term commitment is sealed" –
State Sen. Heather Somers (R-Groton)

Come to the public meeting TODAY at 5:30 PM (doors open at 5pm) at Holiday Inn, New London and voice your concerns. The public has not been given previous details on this project. Many of the industries currently using the Port of New London will no longer be able to use it for a long period of time.
