Middletown: that explosion was a jaw-dropping disaster. And that plant was almost completed. It would look as if there is a lot to be done again. This blogger heard and felt the bang from home on Meriden’s west side. Does it make anyone else speculate that perhaps it is a good thing that the power plant on Cat Hole Mountain was never completed?
Meriden: Mayor Rohde is on the state regionalization committee, looking for ways to streamline government and do things that could save money. It’s a long shot, with lots of snags in the form of unwillingness to yield local control. But in a sense, we already lost local control when we let the state begin funding so many local programs many years ago.
Southington: you cannot have homes with failing sewage systems, unless you’re prepared to let sewage seep into the environment; you cannot settle a sewer line without digging a trench; and you cannot dig a trench without clearing trees, brush, shrubs and whatever else is in the way. The town has undertaken to plant replacement trees, once the job is done and in time, the place will look much as it did before. Is there a better plan?
