The Editor's Notepod, Wed., Nov. 11, 2009

Southington: redesign in the planning at the dangerous intersection of West Street and West Center Street in an attempt to end the peril of vehicles which slide on into the roadway and onto a family’s front lawn. It might be cheaper to teach drivers safer winter habits, but that would be unlikely to have a broad effect on patterns.

Meriden:
regarding the proposed purchase of parcels near Factory H, it is safe to say that this is not the most propitious moment to incur a major expense of this kind, regardless of ultimate effect or one’s views on public projects. On the other hand, there is money in the works for Factory H which needs to be demolished, and it makes sense to do all the work and secure the property as a whole. The city should go for it.
