Bethel to revise proposed blight ordinance

 Town officials will return to the drawing board to revise a proposed blight ordinance after residents expressed concerns at a recent public hearing.

While about 19 people spoke in favor and 19 against the ordinance during the hearing Jan. 15, even those in favor wanted changes, First Selectman Matt Knickerbocker said.

Knickerbocker said the Bethel proposal was not as tough as other towns', but he understood residents' fears that the language would give the town too much authority over minor aspects of a property.

The selectmen likely will make substantive changes in the ordinance that would require another public hearing, he said.

Knickerbocker said the goal was to give the town the legal authority to address properties that were a health or safety concern for the community.

Resident Billy Michael agreed that though many residents spoke in favor an ordinance, most wanted changes to the draft that was presented.

"There was very little support for it as it was written," Michael said.

He said he thought there might be two dozen properties in town, out of 6,500, that need the authority of an ordinance to modify their condition.

But Michael said the proposed ordinance had pages of details that went beyond what was necessary for the health and safety of the community.

Selectman Paul Szatkowski proposed the ordinance and worked with Town Attorney Martin Lawlor on the plan. They looked at ordinances from other towns and at research from the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities.

New Milford and Danbury have blight ordinances, and Ridgefield has been considering the drafting of one.

Property owners would be approached and given time to correct problems, Knickerbocker said, before penalties kicked in.
