The Editor's Notepod, Tues., Dec. 15, 2009

Wallingford: Perhaps Thomas Mezzei of the Housing Authority is correct in wanting to place bids for five housing complexes out to bid on a one-fee basis, but his efforts seems to have run afoul of the various union contract. Right or wrong, one needs, on a board, to follow the rules.

Wallingford: The mock trials held this week by Wallingford’s middle schools, Dag and Moran. Knowledge of the actual workings of the legal system, as opposed to the way it works on TV or in novels is a valuable asset for all citizens, many of whom have grossly unrealistic views of the various processes.

Southington: the confidence-building program has changed its name from “The Club My Parents Made Me Join” to “Success Cafe.” The first appeals to a certain adult sense of humor, but the new name seems more appropriate to the goals of the club: confidence, character, life solutions for middle schoolers at Kennedy and DePaolo.
