TRUMBULL The reformed Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Task Force could be up and running again by summer, according to town council member Ashley Gaudiano.
“I think we’ve received seven or eight applications for the four open spots on the task force, and the hope is that we’ll keep the applications open for another few weeks to see if we get a few more applicants,” Gaudiano, D-4th, said. “It would be nice to have a bigger pool of people to start going through the process.” ....

TRUMBULL Nearly three hours of public comment and often contentious council debate resulted in a one-word change to a resolution that reaffirmed Trumbull’s commitment to a diversity and inclusion task force.
In passing Resolution TC28-171, the council committed to reforming the depleted Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Task Force with four new members to bring its roster back up to eight. The resolution originally said the council would appoint a “new” chairman and vice chairman but the members struck the word “new” from the document, allowing current chair Tara Figueroa a chance to continue to lead the group. ....

TRUMBULL The town’s Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Task Force will continue with Tara Figueroa as its chair, despite an effort to shut the committee down until she resigns or is removed.
“I have not violated any ethical guidelines or codes of conduct,” Figueroa said. “This experience has really amplified to me why there needs to be such a thing as a diversity committee.”
Figueroa has been under fire on social media over comments she made in July calling the Blue Lives Matter flag a symbol of racial bigotry and comparing it to the Confederate flag. The town’s police union, Police Commission Chairman Ray Baldwin and scores of private citizens have called for her removal and social media comments have grown increasingly hostile. ....
