The Editor's Notepod, Sun., Dec. 6, 2009

Southington: The senior center, with the help of the Connecticut Center for Healthy Aging, is preparing a mobile kiosk to help convey answers to questions that some of the aging citizens may have. The booth, to be staffed by senior resource case managers, is aimed at those who may have fallen through the cracks in terms of services.

Area: to pay or not to pay elected town and city officials (some do, some don’t). While it is certainly true that service on the area councils is “voluntary,” a major commitment of time is required of each and every one of them, well beyond just showing up for 12 or 24 meetings a year. Pay certainly isn’t an expectation or an inducement, but it is not inappropriate.
