The Editor's Notepod, Wed., Feb. 11, 2009

Meriden: Unfortunately, the plan to move the football league from Washington Park to Ceppa Field won't wash, so that rules out a move of the Jack Barry League from Britannia St. sogginess to Washington Park. Who knew that arranging leagues could be so complicated?

Wallingford: the discussion begins about remedying parking. I love the suggestion about fewer cars by the bike enthusiast. Probably isn't going to be the main solution, but a great thought.

Southington: Good that an independent person has been hired to examine the charges and counter charges about the chief. This matter should be aired and resolved.

Southington: Town ends last year late with the report but with a surplus, which is very nice.

Meriden: While I certainly hope that the person hit and her youngster in a stroller are all right, it is worth pointing out that under the law, it is not a pedestrian'
s right to use a zebra crosswalk where there is a light with a walk signal, unless the walk signal is on. I thing the zebra crossings should be removed except where drivers are expected to yield to pedestrians at all times.

Note to editor. Southington police commissioners assigned the investigation to the same party they used to hire the chief. How is that defined independant?
