Meriden: Good that the notion of a pay freeze is now on the table. Given the state of the economy, why has it taken so long? But never mind. Get the talks started. Surely, it’s better for everyone to take a small cut than for monstrous and debilitating layoffs to take place with resulting loss of services.
Meriden: Jack Barry LL. Fighting for that Kellogg grant. Well, why not? There’s a good chance. Come on, folks, vote!
State: the proposals to rig up some sort of recall provision against local officials sounds dangerously like a harassment tool. One graph of the story suggests that state and local criminal justice officials could petition the superior court for removal: I’m not sure what business it is of any state official to conclude that someone ought to be dismissed. The option which works would be a petition for recall, as exists in some towns. It should not be used lightly. Lots and lots of questions.
State: Closing the courthouse is a miserable idea and has been so since the beginning.
