WILTON, CT — In an effort to affirm Wilton's commitment to "civility, respect and understanding," the Board of Selectmen unanimously approved a 'civility proclamation,' Friday, reports the Hour.

Second Selectman Michael Kaelin, cited by the Hour, aimed to make the statement a message of positivity, and be inclusive to everyone.
