Present Time
Up until the 2002 Cedar Hill was part of the Fair Haven District of New Haven. The community members in 2000 (based on the finds of the 2000 census) were asked to vote what district they wanted to be part of because of Census results requiring New Haven to redistrict before elections of 2002, they became part of the East Rock district because of the shift of the congressional districts.

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or time:
“... the loss of belief in future states is politically, though certainly not spiritually, the most significant distinction between our present period and the centuries before. And this loss is definite. For no matter how religious our world may turn again, or how much authentic faith still exists in it, or how deeply our moral values may be rooted in our religious systems, the fear of hell is no longer among the motives which would prevent or stimulate the actions of a majority.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
“Miss U.S.A. is in the same graveyard that [Amanda Jones] the twelve-year-old is. Where the sixteen-year-old is. All the past selves. There comes a time when you have to bury those selves because you’ve grown into another one.”
—Amanda Theodosia Jones, U.S. beauty contest winner, Miss U.S.A., 1973. As quoted under the pseudonym “Emma Wright” in American Dreams, Prologue, by Studs Terkel (1980)
