Congratulations are in order for the Blue Ribbon awarded Meriden’s Thomas Hooker School for its national award for academic excellence and high achievement. It’s a demonstration, if you will, that progress at a school with a substantial population of disadvantaged kids can work and that kids attending can excel.
Meriden: with the primary behind them, Rohde &Co. can focus on the November election. Republicans are slowly cross-endorsing We The People candidates, suggesting there is some identity of interest there.
Wallingford: a “less optimal” but still useful site has been identified for a new home for the Wallingford North Farms Volunteer Fire Department. The cash returned to Wallingford from the Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority earlier this year, a $7.2 million surplus, seems to be an appropriate source of funds for what is a needed facility.
Meriden: The plan to construct billboards on the city’s east side, strategically near the Interstate on Nessing Road and Barr Road may not be official, but approval of a move to publish Requests For Proposals definitely suggests the way the city is going. We await the council’s determining action.
Cheshire: “It’s a big number,” and that’s no joke, that has been turned in by firms offering to build a solution to the Community Pool’s problems with the Bubble. Bids ran from $4.1 to $.6 million, but they are good for a year – needed since both Council and voters must approve.
