future redevelopment, particularly given its location in an active area. Future
redevelopment would likely need to include municipal parking to meet existing parking
needs and sustainable site design that reduces impervious surfaces, incorporates
stormwater management strategies, prevents pollutant discharge into the Norwalk River,
and supports long-term climate adaptation. In addition, this site is located in an area that
experiences flooding. Potential flooding
4-12/ page Table 1 Item 7:
This large municipal surface parking lot is located near the Norwalk River and Irving
Freese Park (pocket park) and serves the surrounding commercial area. The site has
potential for future redevelopment. Future redevelopment would likely need to include
municipal parking to meet existing parking needs of this active commercial area. In
addition, future development would need to incorporate modern drainage infrastructure
and low-impact development techniques that will not only enhance environmental
performance but also position the project as a model of ecologically responsible urban
redevelopment in coastal and river-adjacent community.

REPORTS
CHAIRPERSON
Chairman Kibbe came forward to present his report. He reviewed a recent meeting regarding
Veteran’s Park and said they had moved one step beyond without informing the Harbor
Commission. He further reviewed what had happened during the meeting and discussed next
steps.
SHELLFISH COMMISSION
Chair Kibbe said that there was very little to report at this time.
STAFF
HARBOR MASTER
Mr. Lovallo came forward to deliver his report. There are 115 mooring holders that have paid
and he has issued an additional 12 mooring permits. There have been some maintenance issues
with the boat such as the purchasing of batteries that need to be done. A couple of complaints
have been received (i.e. re rowing coaching noise).
CONSULTANT
Mr. Steadman came forward to deliver his report. There was a quick review of grants including
the Small Harbor Improvement Projects Program (SHIPP) SHIIP grant which was created
thanks to the volunteer CT Harbor Management Association. Mr. Steadman suggested to rename
the Veteran’s Park Marina to the Tony Mobilia Marina. There was also a recent request from the
Port Authority that the City provide a final accounting of the SHIPP SHIIP grant that was issued

Regular Meeting

Page 10 of 101
back in 2017. Mr. Steadman requested that Chairman Kibbe share his letter to Mr. Steadman
dated April 17, 2025 with the HMC and that he be given the opportunity to respond. He also
brought up upcoming meetings such as the Norwalk River Watershed Initiative, of which the
Norwalk Harbor Commission is a voting member, and what would be going on there that would
be relevant to the Harbor Commission. There are also updates to Harbor Management Plans in
many towns that will need discussing, most importantly regarding the work being done in the
legislature. He also attended two Manresa presentations. He also brought up the recent purchase
of two islands by a developer to create a destination/recreational area. He said that this would not
only require a zoning amendment but was not consistent with the Coastal Management Act. He
also attended the 2025 Long Island Sound Summit and expressed his belief that attending such
things provides value to the HMC work.
COMMITTEE
MOORING AND HARBOR SAFETY
Mr. Mangels came forward to deliver his report. He said there had been four vessels so far
staying a total of 58 nights. There is another that wants to come in. Mooring tackles have been
inspected. He said they needed another one inside the inner harbor. Most of the new mooring
balls have been installed with one exception due to a boat already being present. There have been
discussions regarding the possibility of a floating dock. He also discussed the payments that have
been received from the yacht clubs. They have approved a vendor for replacing the batteries of
the Harbor Master Boat.
Dr. Pinto asked what the current policy on mooring fees was. Mr. Mangels clarified it to Dr.
Pinto’s satisfaction.
FINANCE
Mr. MacDonnell came forward to discuss this item. He said they have been receiving their
payments from online mooring. He reviewed how much they have made from the mooring fees.
The fiscal year will end in June. He said that there should be a vote of the Commission before
utilizing the funds due to there being an issue with certain consultant services.
PLANS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
There was no report at this time.
NEWSLETTER/WEBSITE
Mr. White said that he had no report at this time.
