Wallingford: rarely has a legal opinion so forcefully added the bottom line to a discussion. The charter says funds are ended at the end of a budget year. Amen.
Meriden: DEP rejects golf course plans to dry up a couple of holes. You’d think that DEP would have made it clearer what they wanted.
State: Miss Outstanding Teen seems to have done a less than outstanding job at hosting a party, but we’ll wait for all the facts. I can’t see withholding names of teens arrested because they are young, though.
Southington: A 2.9 percent increase is very modest, but to those who have taken the no tax pledge, it may still be too much.
Meriden: Executive Auto Group to present before city’s IWWC next Wednesday. How can 792 new parking places and the asphalt they sit on and whatever leaks from them NOT have some negative effect upon the wetlands or anything else round about?
Wallingford: MacKenzie Reservoir dredging project seems ready to go, and if stimulus money is received, that will alleviate bonding load.
Wallingford: good work of Lyman Hall students at Master’s Manna.
State: The raise the age law, providing some sort of legal cushion for 16- and 17-year olds, is a good change, and I think departments are making a whole lot of extra noise over a fairly small matter.
Meriden: new director about to be selected for the MHA. Regarding comments by Roland Cockfield, it has always seemed to me that there is a disconnect between the purpose of Public Housing, which is to provide low cost good quality units for those who can not otherwise afford decent housing, and the constitution of the MHA board, which has to run a business as a landlord and actually protect a bottom line, with very little support.
