SHELTON — Shelton’s push to protect open space received some significant support last week thanks to an early Christmas present from the state of Connecticut. City leaders found out in mid-December they would receive a $187,500 grant from the state’s Open Space and Watershed Land Acquisition program that is expected be used toward the purchase of more than six acres of land known as Pearmain Preserve. Mayor Mark Lauretti said the preserve includes a portion of an approved, but yet to be filed, plan for a six-lot subdivision. The acquisition means the subdivision would be three lots, instead of what had been originally planned for the site. Pearmain Preserve is 6.
