I understand the City will be planting the trees over the next few days. Additionally, I understand that Andy Hodes, of the Jewish Cemetery Assoc of Greater New Haven, is coordinating the project. Andy has related that the local Boy Scouts are interested in getting involved to care for the trees. RWA's plan is to install hose connections, inside the cemetery gates, off of two existing irrigation services. One will be installed at the cemetery entrance on Jewell St, and the other will be installed at the cemetery entrance off Whalley Av. We thought these would be the best locations for proximity to the tree·s, plus there would be a functioning spigot for future use. If you have any questions, let me know. Thanks. LLB Larry L.

Thanks so much and I will follow up to hear how it's 90ing. J ,, » > "Larry Bingaman" <[email protected]> 4/1/2011 1:13 PM»> I was just in the process of locating your email address to respond to your previous request -- yes, we do have a water main on the majority of Jewel Street (see attached map) and on Whalley. Of the 8 services on the Jewel street, 6 are "inactive" services to cemeteries, and 2 are "pending destroy". Depending on the specifics of where the City of New Haven is planning on installing these trees, it should be relatively easy to set them up with a service(s) for irrigation. There are existing meter pits on each of these services, and no need for any excavation of the street pavement. Let me know who [and contact information] you would like our staff to deal with to set up the services and meters. By the way, we have tried on a few occasions since our discussion to connect with Lisa Stauger about her water bill and she has not returned my Assistant's call. We'll keep trying.

When I last spoke with you both we set these dates as they are following Passover, and also the last days of our spring planting season . I know that there were some outstanding issues to resolve with watering the trees, so wanted to check to learn whether that has been addressed. We have procured the trees and scheduled the crews. Andy; you mentioned it would be good to provide some training re : watering the trees. Please let me know when you might like us to do so. Perhaps the following week? Thanks for your help.

    APPENDIX A Appendix A Sampling Methodology for DataHaven 2015 Survey Respondents are contacted via landline or cell phone. The design of the landline sample is conducted so as to ensure the selection of both listed and unlisted telephone numbers, using random digit dialing (RDD). The cell phone sample is drawn from a sample of dedicated wireless telephone exchanges from within Connecticut and the specified zip codes within New York State. Respondents are screened for residence in the state of Connecticut or one of the seven zip codes in New York. The primary supplier of the RDD landline and cell phone samples is Survey Sampling International (SSI) of Shelton, Connecticut, “the premier global provider of sampling solutions for survey research1”. From the SSI Fact Sheet on Radom Digit Samples (for landline telephone samples): Most SSI samples are generated using a database of “working blocks.” A block (also known as a 100-bank or a bank) is a set of 100 contiguous numbers identified by the first two digits of the last four digits of a telephone number. For example, in the telephone number 255-4200, “42” is the block. A block is termed to be working if one or more listed telephone numbers are found in that block. The sample composition is comprised of random numbers distributed across all eligible blocks in proportion to their density of listed telephone households. All blocks within a county are organized in ascending order by area code, exchange, and block number. Once the quota has been allocated to all counties in the frame, a sampling interval is calculated by summing the number of listed residential numbers in each eligible block within the county and dividing that sum by the number of sampling points assigned to the county.

  • Count Me in 2020 Low Response Rate Information for More Information and Resources, Go to Ctdata.Org/Census/Census-2020
    Count Me In 2020 Low Response Rate Information For more information and resources, go to ctdata.org/census/census-2020/ New Haven Area What does “low-response rate” mean? The Census Bureau provides information on areas that are less likely to self-respond initially on Census Day based on results from Census 2010. The Response Outreach Area Mapper (ROAM) application at https://www.census.gov/roam allows communities to identify these areas. The maps below provide the areas within New Haven that had low response rates in the previous decennial Census. Fifteen of the Census Tracts in the New Haven-area had initial response rates of between 5-73% in 2010.1 This is considered a low response rate. This map shows the Census Tracts in the area with 3508 the lowest expected response scores. Approximately 20-38% of households in these tracts are expected to not self—respond.2 Note: The darker the color, the lower the expected response rate. Of these 30 “low response” tracts, 10 will receive “Internet Choice” mailings either in English only (light green) or in English and another language (dark green). This means households in these tracts will receive paper questionnaires in the first mailing, allowing people to respond online or by paper. Those tracts in purple will receive “Internet First” mailings, which means their first invitation will be to complete Census 2020 online. 1 CUNY Mapping Services at the Center for Research, CUNY Graduation Center.

  • Fair Haven Greenway
    Fair Haven Greenway Fair Haven Greenway Overview Vision The Fair Haven Greenway will loop around the bottom of the Fair Haven peninsula along the banks of the Mill and Quinnipiac River and then through the high peaks of East Rock Park. The Greenway will be an off-road paved path wherever space and existing conditions permit. In planning for the Fair Haven Greenway, every effort is made to align the trail as closely as possible to the shoreline of surrounding rivers. South of River Street and along the Mill River, the Greenway will introduce pedestrian/bicycle activities to areas that are predominantly industrial in character now. The Greenway will help create an awareness of and foster a relationship to the important natural resources of Fair Haven that are at certain points inaccessible to the residents of the surrounding neighborhoods. The greenway will also provide safer transportation routes to schools and job sites within Fair Haven. Key Points · Make rivers more accessible to pedestrian and bicycle activities. Create recreational opportunities, which are virtually non-existent at southern end of the Fair Haven peninsula. · Better define the geography of Fair Haven by allowing public access to its shoreline and the bodies of water that surround it and to the traprock ridges above it. Greenways and Cycling Systems, FH, Page 25 Fair Haven Greenway Existing Conditions FH – 1: Suzio Concrete – Criscuolo Park North of the existing Pearl Harbor Memorial “Q” Bridge is the Suzio Concrete facility. Along the shoreline of the facility, the City retains a public access easement (up to 130’ wide setback), which consists of a maintained lawn with wide vistas of the confluence of the Mill and Quinnipiac Rivers and Criscuolo Park.
