Wallingford Council Addresses Title Piracy Concerns, Seeks Protection for Property Owners
Councilor Fishbein raised concerns about 'title piracy,' where individuals record fraudulent documents on land records to claim rights to properties. He cited a case in Yalesville where a fraudulent mortgage from North Carolina was recorded on a resident's property title. The council discussed potential protection measures, with the Mayor stating that the administration would pursue the issue and investigate a free service mentioned in a relevant article. The issue was deferred to a future agenda for a report.

The ordinance also clarified that the schedule of fees applies to permits for signs, billboards, and other display structures under the Connecticut State Building Code.

Wallingford Council Discusses Ethics Board Appointments Amidst Conflict of Interest Concerns
The Town Council discussed potential conflicts of interest regarding appointments to the Board of Ethics.

The council and mayor discussed the existing process where board members can recuse themselves if they feel a conflict exists, and the role of alternates. There was also discussion about the process for appointing members to boards and commissions, and the potential for amending ordinances to address concerns about member composition and monetary ties to the town. Ultimately, three reappointments to the Board of Ethics, including Sean Doherty, Mary Paquette, and John Paul Venoit, were approved unanimously.
