Cheshire: it is good to read that the Cheshire Library Advisory board voted explicitly to support their librarian’s decision on the dreadful book – even though they did not have to do so. Not only does the choice follow regular procedure, and not only did numerous residents ask for the book, but also the situation is clear from any legal entanglement. Not only did the court’s gag order not apply to the library, it is highly doubtful it could apply: the library is not within the court’s jurisdiction. For heaven’s sake, anyone who feels inclined to read this repellant work should do so by borrowing the library copy rather than buying another copy.
Meriden: the City Council did the right thing to buy those two sites adjacent to Factory H. To gain control of the whole area makes a future possible, if not this year or next then ten years hence.
Southington: allegations in Milford about former superintendent Polanski, given his experience locally, would seem somewhat unlikely, but you never know. We certainly hope to see him cleared thoroughly.
Wallingford: Superintendent Menzo has made a good point in asking business to help facilitate parent/teacher conferences for their employees.
State: with Pfizer pulling out of New London, that whole ruckus over the Fort Trumbull neighborhood eminent domain case is rendered pointless. Company says its decision has nothing to do with the court case, but had there not been the hold up and the out-and-out hostility, the whole thing might have been developed by now. Then again, Pfizer’s purchase by Wyeth might have happened anyway.
