3. Residents Vote On $1.77 Million Property Purchase In Guilford (patch.com) — Guilford voters have approved spending $1.77 million to buy 370 Church Street, positioning the town for a possible new or renovated police station near the I-95/Route 77 interchange.

5. Guilford, CT secures AAA rating for $5 million GO bond sale (tradersunion.com) — Guilford is preparing a $5 million general obligation bond sale around Sept. 22, backed by a reaffirmed AAA rating and Stable Outlook from Fitch.
