Wallingford: the shape of union negotiations. Comparisons with other towns.
Meriden: Fireworks to be presented commercially. A fine offer. But they’re not on West Peak?
State: calories on menu lists? Everyone says Americans are too big. But isn’t this a first step in regulating what people eat? It didn’t work at schools. Also, it is inherently unfair to apply such a rule to chains but not to individually-owned outlets. Discrimination, pure and simple.
Southington: It’s hard on the incumbent rec director, but the practice on overtime and comp time are really antediluvian. Does it appear the man has had a cushy deal? Probably to most people. On the other hand, when the system was set up it was probably common enough.
Wallingford: Charter hearing by council. Splits on veto, 5-4, same as before.

Councilor Rascati moved that all the charter issues be in one ballot question. All or nothing. No choice. Why? Because seniors, she said, wouldn't be able to understand more than one ballot question. Multiple choice is too confusing for them, she said. The other Republican councilors favored just one question on the ballot, too. The Democrats used thier five votes to give the voters choices. The Republicans used their four votes to try to block choices. What's going on?
