WWSA agenda link still runs through July URL while chair listing and minutes lag

Sep 10, 2026

WWSA upcoming-agenda link still points to July document ahead of Sept. 15 meeting

WWSA warning date moved to July 31, but July 21 board minutes are still not posted

Since the last WWSA checks, the home-page warning date has rolled forward to July 31, but the two underlying board-record problems remain: the July 21 file is still labeled as the upcoming agenda on the board page, and no July 21 board minutes appear in the archive. (water.townofwilton.com)

WWSA partly fixes July 21 agenda posting, but site navigation still conflicts

Compared with July 24-25 checks, the WWSA's main Meetings/Board page now labels the agenda link '(07/21/26)' instead of the older stale May date, and the archive page now lists a July 21 board agenda. However, the Annual Budget page still carries a sidebar link labeled '(05/26/26),' the WWSA Staff page still shows an undated 'Upcoming Meeting Agenda' menu item, and the archive page reviewed today still did not list July 21 board minutes. (water.townofwilton.com)

Jul 21, 2026

WWSA posts the July 21 agenda after the stale May 26 label

The stale '(05/26/26)' upcoming-agenda label that persisted through July 20 is now replaced by a July 21 agenda, and the agenda contents are publicly visible before the meeting.

Jul 20, 2026

WWSA board page still points to May 26 on the eve of the July 21 meeting

The stale WWSA agenda problem has now carried to the day before the scheduled July 21 board meeting, making the missing or mislabeled agenda a same-week access problem rather than a routine stale-page issue.

WWSA board date is corrected to May 26, but oversight records remain dated

The Wilton Water & Sewer Authority’s meeting archive now lists the May 26 board agenda, but the main meetings page still labels the same packet as the "Upcoming Meeting Agenda" and still says the authority meets on the third Tuesday even though the May meeting was on Tuesday, May 26.

May 20, 2026

WWSA shifted its May board meeting from May 19 to May 26

Wilton Water & Sewer Authority’s meetings page now lists May 26, 2026 instead of May 19, and the newly posted May 26 agenda is effectively the same agenda previously posted for May 19; the site gives no reason for the change, while audit and governance ‘upcoming’ links still point to November 19, 2024 PDFs.
