The Newtown Legislative Council could take up a proposal about open carry when they meet next month.  An ordinance review committee is considering a local ban.  A group of High School students spoke at the meeting, urging members not to allow open carry on town property.  Many of the students were in Sandy Hook Elementary when 20 children and 6 educators were killed in 2012.  The outgoing Legislative Council voted to recommend continued consideration of the ban when new members are sworn in.  The balance of power on the 12-member Legislative Council flipped last week from a 7-to-5 Democratic majority to a 9-to-3 Republican majority.  Some member say it's a state issue, while others are concerned about a potential costly lawsuit.
