Meriden: One good result of the state budget that isn't a budget, finally adopted this week, is that the Meriden court house will remain open. Closing it was such a bad idea in the first place that it was even hard to discuss it rationally.
State: CRRA has abandoned plans for an ash dump in Franklin. Everyone seems to have opposed it from the beginning. But no matter where the ash goes, it has to go somewhere. The trash belongs to all of us.
M/W/S/C: Even Cheshire has a school making insufficient progress under No Child Left Behind? Given that this is the richest state in the nation, that Cheshire is by no means a backward town, and that our education spending has been pretty good all along, though financed by the property tax, it is a complete absurdity and demonstrates the punitive and anti-educational effect of the NCLB.
