Danbury calls on Conn. to pave state roads in the City

The Danbury City Council has approved a Capital budget for the coming fiscal year, with about $1.12 million included for road paving, drainage and road improvements.  About $3.5 million in previous borrowing is also available.  Public Works Director Antonio Iadarola says that's enough to pave little more than 6 miles of the worst roadways in the City.  A bid has been sent out for paving, but Iadarola cautioned that the cost of materials is rising and that escalation is hitting the City hard.  While he normally doesn't provide a list of roads to pave, in case there are changes, Iadarola says one top concern is Saw Mill Road.  He notes that it took a beating over the winter and his office has received a lot of complaints about the condition of the road.  Mayor Dean Esposito told the City Council that his office also fields a lot of calls about road condition, but most are about state roads such as Federal Road or Clapboard Ridge Road.
