Center with communist tenant to get state aid

By Around the Web

(CONNECTICUT MIRROR) — A New Haven community center whose bid for a state rehabilitation grant stalled due to its ties with the Communist Party has apparently won the blessing of Gov. Dannel P. Malloy’s administration.

Malloy’s budget director, Office of Policy and Management Secretary Benjamin Barnes, confirmed Thursday that the center’s request for $300,000 to upgrade a facility that houses, arts, youth development, and other social service programs, would be placed on the commission’s June 4 agenda.
