First, the town of Pomfret potentially wants a new and relocated town hall. Now it wants a logo?
At a time when population is shrinking, instead of trying gimmicks why don't officials look for better solutions? Possibly moving town hall to a new location does nothing to better the lives of residents served by the government.
What is a better solution -- and makes sense by looking at the representation of the Town Board -- is finding solutions with the village of Fredonia. We know that's a tough ask. Fredonia is consistently bullheaded when it comes to regional actions.
But Pomfret's board includes village residents -- many who have a stake in making the cooperation happen. As for the logo, we suggest an incorporation of what Town Board member Ann Eckman suggests. Consider the agricultural heritage and its history.
Including a piece of the village would be helpful to -- especially for future considerations of better municipal partnerships.
