The Borough of Stonington was chartered in 1801 by a special
act of the legislature of the State of Connecticut. It is the oldest Borough in
Connecticut. The Borough Charter sets forth the basic structure of Borough
government, describing the powers and duties of the elected officials. The
governing body is the Board of Warden & Burgesses, which has the power to
make Ordinances and prepares the budget for approval at the Annual Borough and
Budget Meeting in the third week of April. The Board of Warden & Burgesses
also appoints members of the Planning & Zoning Commission and the Zoning
Board of Appeals. The Harbor Management Commission is a joint agency of the
Town and the Borough.
