Some Connecticut Towns Eye Four-Day Official Workweek

Officials in several Connecticut towns have hit upon a new way to save money: Shut town hall one extra day of the week.

This may save the towns about $50,000, particularly in rising fuel costs.

Officials are citing those rising costs as the reason they're switching to a four-day workweek. Redding, Sterling, and Salem have already implemented the adjusted schedule, and Tolland, Middletown, Stafford and other towns are researching it.

West Hartford has also implemented a four-day workweek for the town clerk, assessor, and tax office, but the adjustment was inspired by budget cuts rather than energy savings, Town Manager James Francis said.
