The City has heretofore been a designated member municipality of the Housatonic Valley
Planning Region, and is a member of the Housatonic Valley Council of Elected Officials
("HVCEO"), a regional council of elected officials and regional planning agency serving
the Housatonic Valley Planning Region. Pursuant to C.G.S. § 16a-4c(b) (as amended
by Public Act 13-247, § 249), the member municipalities of HVCEO and of the South
Western Regional Planning Agency ("SWRPA") have agreed to consolidate the Housatonic
Valley Planning Region and the South Western Planning Region into a single planning
region. On or about December 6, 2013, the Office of Policy and Management of the State
of Connecticut ("OPM") redesignated the Housatonic Valley Planning Region and the
South Western Planning Region as the Western Connecticut Planning Region. Pursuant
to Public Act 13-247, § 250, each regional planning agency and regional council of
elected officials within a planning region must restructure as a single regional council
of governments on or before January 1, 2015. HVCEO and SWRPA have determined to restructure
themselves as the Western Connecticut Council of Governments. The City desires to
join the Western Connecticut Council of Governments by and through approval of this
ordinance.
