Scenic road designation for Binney Park loop?

Our highway department’s idea of civic improvement

I’m against over-regulation of property, as a general rule, but the awful proposed redesign of the rotary in front of Perrot Library did catch my attention, and the attention of neighbors. They have now suggested that the town designate the area a “scenic highway”, which seems a bit of a stretch, but I understand the sentiment.

Over at Greenwich Free Press, owner/publisher Leslie Yager reports on what’s going on, and includes a thorough discussion of the issues, pro and con. Yager and I don’t have even a cordial relationship; her choice, not mine, and it’s all over politics, which is silly, but she’s the only one in town willing to sit through interminable planning and zoning meetings and report on them. We owe her.
