Wallingford: Jason Zandry sets up his own website providing information for Wallingford residents. This is a fine service and very public spirited effort. It seems to me, however, that it lets the town off the hook for actually making this sort of information public itself. Jason Zandry shouldn’t have to do this for the town.
Congress: very glad to read that our own representative in Congress, Chris Murphy, himself opposes the automatic pay hikes already set to take effect. Can he lead the charge to revoke them?
State: Report on re-introducing highway tools due this month. Given the economic climate, I find it hard to believe the report or anyone else will support new tolls of any sort — however prudent that might be. Biggest boondoggle, seems to me, are those HOV lanes. No one uses them, because we all ride alone. So require all trucks to use them.
Meriden: We bemoan the loss of the office manager at Literacy Volunteers. This program makes do with such a tiny public commitment and the sacrifice is so nobly borne.
