Meriden: The Hall Farm. It is natural enough for the owners of this 71.8 acre property to want to sell it. It is equally natural for the town to want to see it developed and for the neighbors to oppose the idea. Against the question of quality of life, which weighs toward the neighbors, is the dubious matter of preserving a fly in amber. So how is the best way to resolve such situations, also afflicting Meriden on Cathole Mountain and in the auto-auction situation off Murdock?
Meriden/Portugal/Rockport: The story of a letter in a bottle. Not your usual story, but a touching one.
State: The delay in the rather minor expansion of Shore Line East to New London, thanks to Amtrak’s delay in replacing 74,000 concrete ties.
Cheshire: Being warden of Manson Youth Institute — read Youth Prison — has to be one of the most thankless jobs in the state. Congratulations to her for sticking with it and attempting to make the place human.
Wallingford: Congratulations to Kirstey Neeman and her poster in the annual Fire Prevention Poster Contest.
Southington: Clearly, regardless of the pull and tug, making the Historical Society’s building accessible is an issue which must be faced, sooner or later.
Cheshire: The idea of recycling pregnancy clothing and equipment at the Hope Pregnancy Center. Like recycling ball gowns and winter coats, it’s a step toward reality and the recognition that everything each person uses must be brand-spanking new.
