Wallingford, etc.: CRRA/Covanta compared in general. I suppose I’m a control freak at heart, but I cannot see allowing a critical local service, garbage disposal, to be handed over to someone else and to be operated under someone else’s profit motive. CRRA’s proposal seems not to insure that after amortizing the purchase the plant would belong to the towns. That has to be cleared up. The Covanta proposal gives the whole thing to the company following exercise of the $1 option which incredibly exists. I can’t see it.
Southington: Briarwood College sold. Transferred is the business, not the land. It’s odd to think of an institution of higher learning being operated as a business. The sites of the other schools in Connecticut, all with a Lin-coln name, focus on career education.
Meriden: Businesses angered and traffic snarls which dissuade potential customers. Apparently, there were some communication problems with the East Main repaving job.
Cheshire/Southington: The life-style center is again concerning the neighbors, this time over traffic flow and that overpass at Rts 10 and 322. Again, the need is underlined for there to be collaboration in the zon-ing/development process between adjoining towns.
