跟进：布里奇波特市长欢迎选址委员会10月29日驳回联合照明单杆申请，称须与两市实质协商、坚持地下方案
康涅狄格州费尔菲尔德县布里奇波特市消息：布里奇波特市长约瑟夫·加尼姆10月29日发表声明，对康涅狄格州选址委员会当天驳回联合照明公司沿大都会北方铁路架设单杆的申请表示欣慰。
加尼姆说，选址委员会恰当地听取了布里奇波特市与费尔菲尔德镇官员和居民的关切，而这些声音在该提案2023年最初提交时并未得到倾听。这意味着，如果联合照明公司希望继续推进该项目，必须与布里奇波特市和费尔菲尔德镇进行有实质内容的公众程序，这正是两地一直以来的要求。
加尼姆感谢发声的市民，以及在选址委员会与高等法院成功代表该市利益的律师，并感谢两地议员放大了居民的关切。他同时表示，他继续要求该项目如要建设就应埋入地下，愿以诚意与联合照明公司就可接受的地下替代方案进行谈判。
Follow-Up: Bridgeport Mayor Welcomes Siting Council’s October 29 Rejection of United Illuminating Monopole Plan, Insists on Real Talks and Underground Option
Bridgeport, Fairfield County, Connecticut: Bridgeport Mayor Joseph Ganim issued a statement on October 29 welcoming the Connecticut Siting Council’s decision that day to deny United Illuminating’s application to erect monopoles along the Metro-North railroad.
Ganim said the council appropriately listened to the concerns of officials and residents of Bridgeport and the town of Fairfield, voices he said were not heard when the proposal was first filed in 2023. The denial means that if United Illuminating wishes to move forward, it must engage in a substantive public process with Bridgeport and Fairfield, which is what both communities have sought all along.
Ganim thanked the residents who spoke out, the attorneys who successfully represented the city before the Siting Council and in Superior Court, and the legislators who amplified residents’ concerns. He said he continues to insist that if the project is built it should be placed underground, and that he is willing to negotiate in good faith with United Illuminating on an acceptable underground alternative.
