HARTFORD — Electric deregulation. Tax cuts. Tougher laws against sex offenders. Uniform standards for police pursuits. Increasing the state's inventory of open space land. These and other issues will be on the agenda as Connecticut's legislature kicks off its 1998 session this week. Topping the list for legislative action will be a plan put forth by Gov. John G. Rowland to improve the state's public schools. In unveiling his plan three weeks by M. Jodi Rell ago to the state Board of Education, Gov. Rowland said, "The woik of educating our children is arguably the most important work of government.

In other financial matters, the council will look into issuinga bond for repairs to the Oakville branch library, Mr. Gordon said. Needed work, which would cost $450,000, includes a new roof and renovation of the lower level. The Watertown Library Asso- ciation would be able to take ad- vantage of a $150,000 grant, but has to find a way to fund the re- mainder of the cost. The capital improvememfunding has been used to pay for a new roof at the main library in Watertown and proposed parking lot renovations. Mr.Gordon'sreporttoihecoun- cil also included information on expected hikes in fees paid to the Connecticut Resource Recovery Authority. Despite receiving a $87,000 refund from CRRA, the town is faced with a sizeable in- crease in tipping fees, Mr. Gordon reported. The increases are due to a larger volume of trash carted to the CRRA plant on Echo Lake Road. "The town is in extremely good shape," Mr. Gordon continued, in terms of bond indebtedness. The town has used only $12 million to $14 million of $170 million author- ized by the state to issue bonds, he said.
