Meriden: the map showing division of lands at the NRG site. Maps are maps, of course, but the portion reserved for open spaces looks drawn out and attenuated, as if it were not usable anyway, while the land potentially developed seems compact. Even if nothing happens in a lifetime, the division so far seems ample.
Southington: that $100,000 mistake regarding school maintenance would be trivial in any other year, as it is a small amount compared to the whole budget of the town or the school system. But there’s a signal crossed somewhere, since maintenance isn’t something to be ignored.
Meriden: the decades-old bond regarding a sidewalk on Bronson Ave., near the former VMMC, is handy for completing projects. But transforming $2,500 into $11,000 seems a little odd. If there are many of these items hanging around, they should be invoked with some sense of proportion.
Wallingford: it’s no wonder there are fewer farms in Connecticut, as more and more of the state becomes suburban neighborhoods. When one considers what urban homeowners must put up with constantly, without any redress, it seems odd that a neighborhood would have an issue with farming. So long as it is agricultural in nature, why object?
State: UTC plans to move as many jobs as possible out of Connecticut and out of the US. Thanks, UTC: it’s a real patriotic firm.
