The Editor's Notepod, Friday, November 14, 2008

Meriden: study being done on trash hauling. We’d like to see a list of pluses and minuses. There are, after all, many ways to proceed. Some towns not only do pickup of garbage but also provide regulation garbage containers for everyone, which I suppose makes the collection quicker, since it’s not quirky. And speaking of quirks, the anti-trust wrinkle is an odd one.

Wallingford: Sheehan High School adding drug manufacture (legal ones, a la Bristol-Myers Squibb et al.). It’s kind of a natural idea, and a very good one.

Cheshire: town council presenting operating budget with less than 3% increase for next year. Good start. We may all see budgets actually shrink!
