The Editor's Notepod, Thurs., Mar. 5, 2009

Meriden: It’s not an auto facility it’s a used auto facility on Murdock Ave. Does that matter? How is a community to determine what is acceptable and what is not, and who gets to decide? I imagine there are few who would urge eminent domain in such a situation, but how else to proceed?

Southington:
report card revision. This is something which is done periodically, I suppose, but this time they will be going to computerize it, which should make storage easier. Perhaps. On the other hand, how much need is there for an elementary school student’s grade records and teachers’ comments to be examined in later years?

Area: there have been a lot of fires lately. People should exercise extra care. I note the siding in the photos today, and wonder if vinyl siding is used, how it affects burning characteristics.

Lot of fires lately, but Kendzior wants to close a firehouse. One that was revamped for $800,000 in 1996.
Now that's real cost-effective and safety- minded....not!
