State’s smallest city has big mayoral battle

DERBY — No one needs to remind Mayor Anita Dugatto she’s in a battle for her political life. All she has to do is look out any City Hall window fronting Elizabeth Street. There, on a building owned by Leo Moscato Jr., the ousted parking authority director, hangs a banner sporting the confident face of Richard Dziekan, Dugatto’s Republican opponent. But that’s not the only sign. Parked on the city’s nearly vacant Main Street as it awaits a long overdue redevelopment is a box truck serving as a roadside billboard. “Downtown Now? Starts 2021,” says a sign affixed to the truck’s cargo box, along with, “Another $500,000 Study Wasted. Derby Is A Ghost Town. Derby Needs a New Leader. Taxpayers Deserve Better.
