The views stated here are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the editors of this newspaper. We welcome supporting or opposing views on any published item. Received June 16, 2024.

On May 20, 2024, Town of Haddam’s Committee on Aging held our monthly meeting. Discussion included the use of Haddam Elementary School (HES) for Senior programs and Senior Housing.

 

A motion was made to support the Board of Selectmen and RAK proposal for mixed use to include a Senior Center, Community Center, some town offices and up to 36 one- and two -bedroom affordable senior apartments.

 

Today nearly 20% of Haddam’s population is 65 and over and continues to grow. Going forward the RAK proposal represents a good plan for the future. We encourage everyone to go to the Haddam web site to review the proposal.
