The Editor's Notepod, Thur., Mar. 4, 2010

Southington: the glacial erratic wins, and that’s a good thing. The subdivision on Pleasant Street was approved with proviso that big rocks – 60 cu. ft. in this case – remain where they are as geologic features. Developer now asks to remove them. The rock stays, per PZC.

Cheshire: what good does it do to play hush-hush with a prominent police officer’s suspension, especially when there’s a big union/chief unrest going on and when the suspended officer is the president of the union? This is how to make talk get louder.

Meriden: Human Rights survey has some interesting results . . . they should be put together with a plan of action for the results to mean anything, but first it would seem that the questionnaire ought to get to more than 19 persons, most of whom are already workers in the social services network.

Wallingford: Housing Authority has enough issues without having commissioners show up and offer any comment whatever about the behavior of employees on the job. That’s the director’s responsibility, no matter what may have been expressed.
