Senator Praises Rejection of UI Transmission Line Proposal

Jun 13, 2025 Stephen Krauchick

FAIRFIELD, CT — State Senator Tony Hwang is applauding a recent decision by the Connecticut Siting Council to reject United Illuminating’s controversial Docket 516R proposal, which would have placed large transmission monopoles along the Metro-North Railroad corridor through Fairfield and Bridgeport.

Bysiewicz, on hand to endorse D’Addario, praised his leadership and business experience, though she repeatedly referred to him as “Dave” during her remarks—apparently mixing him up with outgoing First Selectman David Bindelglass, who is not seeking re-election. “Nick—Dave—has shown the kind of steady leadership Easton needs,” Bysiewicz said, prompting some good-natured laughter from the soaked but supportive crowd huddled under umbrellas. “In all seriousness, Nick’s record on the Board of Selectmen and his experience running…
