Danbury signs off on lease change to move Head Start classrooms to Old Jail

The Danbury City Council has approved an updated lease for the Connecticut Institute for Communities so it can relocate some Head Start classrooms.  Four classrooms will be moving out of Laurel Gardens on Main Street into space CIFIC already leases at the Old Jail facility.  The Woman Infant and Children Nutrition Program office, also operated by CIFC, will be renovated.  The renovations require new child bathrooms, but could be done in a way to cause no permanent alteration of the building.  Temporary partitions would also be added.  The build out would be done at CIFC's cost and the organization would pay all of the utilities.  CIFIC will also take care of grounds maintenance like mowing and plowing, as well as garbage hauling and playground maintenance.
