A Wallingford zoning amendment has the hope of bringing some new life to the Tracy area, which needs a shot in the arm. The ability to construct multi-family dwellings matches fairly well with what exists in Meriden, just to the north, and the change is logical.
Southington: the conversation about the structures and equipment at the former Drive-In Theater suggest that all the stakeholders are not on the same page regarding what stays and what goes. It will be too late if the matter becomes involved in a turf war: who’s in charge?
Wallingford: the mayor’s advice to the council, to reject these two negotiated and essentially reasonable labor contracts, in the absence of any advance notification that he was adopting a No Raise stand, was bad, and the Council should have adopted what was unanimously adopted by the Board of Education and approved by the employee groups. If there’s some unstated reason why the two contracts, which both seem not to add costs despite the very minimal raises, the reason should be aired.
Meriden: more on the high school replacement plan. Brian Daniels presentation seems reasonable, as, indeed, it has all along. What is needed seems to be a plan of getting from three alternatives to a final plan. How is the decision to be made? Unless that is made clear, the project will leave a segment behind which hasn’t reached a consensus.
