Cheshire: So somehow it is becoming a partisan issue over who selects the books at the library? Republicans are planning – or something near to it – to replace the town manager? This was in the campaign? So the town doesn’t want professional management but instead “representation I government”? This should be a good ride.
Meriden: Rohde plans to choose his own caseworker. That’s a shame for the incumbent, but that is the only job within the mayor’s power and it is natural that the mayor would want to choose his own person after winning his own term.
Wallingford: Covanta reaches agreement with DEP on emission error two years ago, since remedied, which involves paying the agency cash sums to finance other pollution control programs, this particular case involving recycling. In a tight economy, this probably puts the levying of fines to good use.
Wallingford: American Cancer Society reacts to change in national guidelines for mammography and breast exams for cancer. It is very difficult to tell whether the change in recommended screening is a cost saving measure or a reaction to statistical results and reasonable under scientific measure. Similar reaction occurred to the change in the prostate recommendations. Everything becomes politicized.
Cheshire: the decision on an artificial turf field seems to stick in someone’s throat. While we certainly urged caution until safety results were received, that seems to have happened with no real results. The decision was all but made then. Will it now be subject to new debate?
Southington: PZC should proceed with extreme care in attempting to alter or delay the VIP permit. Rules are rules, and the rule of law is the rule of law. You can’t just alter the law because the subject matter is offensive to someone.
