Parks And Summer Events Discussed: Port Chester Meetings This Week

PORT CHESTER, NY — Legendary Yale political theorist Robert Dahl famously wrote "In the democratic vision, the freedom achieved by a democratic order is above all the freedom of self-determination in making collective and binding decisions: the self-determination of citizens entitled to participate as political equals in the making of the rules and laws under which they will live together as citizens."
