For her ninth birthday this year, Morgan Bartkowski wanted a bunch of presents and money.

But they weren’t for her. Instead, she asked for donations and supplies for the Waterford-East Lyme Animal shelter. Overall, she raised $261 in donations for a new animal shelter, and gave bags of food and other supplies to Animal Control Officer Robert Yuchniuk.

Bartkowski gave the supplies to Yuchniuk with her dog, Pumpkin. The Bartkowski family recently adopted Pumpkin from the animal shelter.

Mr. Steiner wants to build 72 three story homes on 32 acres in addition to the 60 condos in the two…Read More large buildings. That is more than two individual units per acre or if you include the 60 condos - that is MORE than 4 units per acre! The area around the property for new building is zoned 3 acres per unit. The average of currently built housing abutting the property is about one acre per unit. That is not in keeping with the neighborhood character.

Mr Steiner may be the last hope for this decrepit place. The neighbors need to move along, or buy…Read More the place themselves. Change might help the stonewalling attitude that has become evident in nearly the entire town, revolving around exclusive entitled old farts with nothing better to do than remember their glory days of Seaside. Its gone, & it's not going to revert back to a pasture either. (too many complaints about that cow smell and so forth). My advice is to listen carefully and try to work something out, get over your own selfish grandious dreams of Pelham Manor style estates and do SOMETHING before it simply falls apart like Norwich Hospital, the countless thread/manufacturing mills, and every other historic building that has been left to rot.
