  • CHAPTER 6: SERVICES and INFRASTRUCTURE Introduction
    Chester 2009 Plan of Conservation and Development Page 6‐1 CHAPTER 6: SERVICES AND INFRASTRUCTURE Introduction Town services and infrastructure are the framework on which the community network operates, progresses, and interacts. Town services include governing boards and commissions, social services, recreational programs, education, public safety, and public works. Infrastructure incorporates tangible facilities that can be moved, expanded, modified, or removed. The library, town hall, community center, transportation, communications, parks, trails, water, sewer, fire stations, and schools are some of the significant facilities that enhance community character and quality of life. This Plan of Conservation and Development explores Chester’s services and infrastructure to provide recommendations to address future needs. To coordinate efficient and effective town planning, multiple services need to be supported by mutually shared infrastructure. A caveat in final recommendations within this section of the plan is the ability of the town to legally act within the context of enabling statutes outlined by the State of Connecticut. There are also policies and standards outlined by the state and federal government which the town follows in the context of receiving state funding or use of state property. Chester has significant acreage dedicated to state or regional ownership; parks, forest, regional watershed, and transportation. The town’s ability to coordinate future planning goals with infrastructure improvements in parks, roads, and utilities

  • Ctrides Quarterly Report
    CTrides.com 1-877- CTrides (287-4337) Quarterly Report [email protected] July —September 2018 CTrides: Quarter 3 Marketing Activity Summary July - September 2018 CTrides launched a couple of new programs in Quarter 3. The college month campaign was reinvented with new initiatives and a name and a new Transit Rewards Program was developed. In addition to these new programs, the marketing team organized and implemented a New Haven Union Station redevelopment survey. Road Scholar During the month of September, CTrides organized and executed a back-to-school month campaign for college students. The campaign focused on transportation options for college students around their campuses and across the State of Connecticut. The central theme of the campaign was, “Become a Road Scholar.” This campaign required extensive preparation from the marketing team. One of the main brochures given out during this campaign highlighted the transportation options for each participating college and university. The brochures were customized outlines for each school and its surrounding transportation options. Working with the proper state agencies, the marketing team compiled the transportation information for each location, designed each customized brochure, and printed them for distribution at events. In addition to the customized brochures, t-shirts and other giveaway items were developed for promotion. Coordination between the marketing team, outreach team, and individual schools was imperative for the success of this campaign. Events were held at each of the 23 participating schools throughout the month. Transit Rewards The marketing team coordinated and launch a new rewards program called, Transit Rewards, during Quarter 3. This program is designed to benefit area businesses, restaurants and attractions from across the state and encourage transit ridership on Hartford Line, CTfastrak, and Shore Line East.
