Public hearings on Newtown fund delayed by meeting with AG

Public hearings that were scheduled to take place today and tomorrow in Newtown about the distribution of money by the Sandy Hook Community Foundation have been postponed. 

 

The Board of Directors is instead meeting with representatives of the state Attorney General's office to review the process that was used to determine the amount of funds to be distributed to the families most impacted by what happened December 14th. 

 

After the meeting with the Attorney General's office, the distribution committee will announce rescheduled public hearing dates.  The Foundation has proposed distributing $7.7 million to 40 families.  The families of the 26 victims, the two people injured by the shooter and the families of 12 children in the two classrooms where the shooter killed 20 children.

 

The fund has received $11 million in donations.
