Meriden: A broken water main Sunday morning spews millions of gallons into street, interrupts service. Now fixed. Not a long pipe, but a big, and old and cold.
State: CCM, representing almost all of state’s towns, agree on need for early decision on state budget, on expanded areas to explore local revenues, on bigger share of an increased state sales tax. Push on to regionalize services. Meriden won’t get much help there, since our closest neighbors, Wallingford and Southington, just don’t think any cooperation with Meriden is very exciting.
Wallingford: More on the Wallingford website. This is not a big expense, once the site is set up, nor is it difficult to maintain, if it’s done regularly. And it is a service.
Meriden: Planning for the use of Neighborhood Stabilization Program money, some $1.8 million. It seems fairly complex, but it’s welcome all the same.
Wallingford: A final on the trash-to-energy plant deal, Covanta, CRRA and the Towns?
Southington: no final on the artificial turf issue. I hope they can come up with something definitive, although of course it is impossible to prove that crumb rubber is harmless.
