📰 News we're reading

• Leaks, Failing AC Create Problems At Windsor Library (patch.com) — Windsor's main library is grappling with serious building problems, including ceiling leaks from heavy rain and an air-conditioning system running on a single weakened compressor. Staff are using creative stopgaps, like a decorated barrel under a steady drip in Kidspace, even as the busy two-branch system serves hundreds of thousands of circulations and tech help visits. Long-term fixes for the roofs, AC, and water damage remain unfunded and unscheduled.
   

• Fazio calls for end to tax breaks for large data centers (wfsb.com) — A proposed change to Connecticut's tax policy could directly affect Windsor, where a Cigna-owned data center has sought state equipment tax breaks that a gubernatorial candidate now wants to end for large facilities. He argues AI-scale centers strain the grid and raise utility costs, while the governor currently supports incentives for smaller operations. Windsor's existing data center is central to the debate.
