Meriden: Human Rights Advisor Board needs to be given new life somehow. I see no particular problem with atty. Deborah Moore being on the board. There’s no conflict really, since the board has no powers. If the board were active and making recommendations, it still wouldn’t hurt to have her present, since she is in a position to tell other members what city policy is or is not and how things work and don’t work. At the same time, it wouldn’t hurt to have some members with a bit more of an agenda as well as those with other concerns. Remember, it’s an advisory board. Could it be something else? Sure!
Southington: Suggestion box on saving budget dollars. For every suggestion there will be, naturally, some defenders. But I think a suggestion box will merely catch notes from people who are annoyed at some particular program which helps someone else, not them. And that’s okay, so long as those making decisions remember that it isn’t a popularity contest.
Wallingford: Seems to me that while handing out parking tickets is a great way to get people’s attention, it doesn’t solve much and is not the kind of thing to do with today’s economy, thanks for the ticket, officer. Folks should sit down and provide more parking if it’s a problem. One of the things those malls do is that let people park there, and there’s not much squabbling over whether someone gets to park here or over there.
State: Casinos experiencing a drop in income, like everybody else. Will this end CT dependence on gaming funds? Don’t count on it!
Southington: Efforts made by David and Kristen Ryan with Asst. Principal David German to improve drop-off traffic flow at Southington High School.
Southington: as a Valentine fundraiser, the American Legion Auxiliary’s Chocolate Festival is hard to beat — of course, this sort of thing can’t happen in a public school today.
