Danbury Mayor Dean Esposito declared a Level 2 Snow Emergency at 5pm on Monday, and he also announced that parking is prohibited on city streets. To avoid having your vehicle ticketed and towed, it must have been moved to off-street parking by 7PM Monday. The Patriot Parking Garage was opened at 5pm yesterday to accommodate those who needed space to comply with the weather emergency. The mayor also asked Danbury residents not to travel on City streets unless it is absolutely necessary until they are cleared. The Mayor said stay safe, and if you have family, friends, and neighbors, make sure they are safe as well until the storm passes and things are cleaned up.

Ed launched his radio career in 1975 and has spent more than five decades in the broadcasting industry. During that time, he has served in a wide range of roles including Air Personality, News Director, Sales Manager, Operations Manager, and General Manager at numerous radio stations in various markets across the country. Beyond on-air and management responsibilities, Ed has also worked extensively on the technical side of broadcasting. His background includes RF engineering and information technology, with particular experience configuring digital automation systems and remote voice-tracking platforms used by stations across the country. Ed was also among a select group of industry professionals invited by Google to its California headquarters following the company’s acquisition of Scott Studios. He was one of just 12 broadcasters nationwide chosen to participate in discussions and provide input during the design and rollout of Google’s digital broadcast automation platform. Although the majority of Ed’s career—spanning roughly four decades—was rooted in music radio, he transitioned into news and information programming in 2012. He says the move into spoken-word broadcasting was a natural evolution after decades of experience in multiple areas of the industry.
