Southington: The Barnes Museum roof, now apparently 175 years old, is leaking badly. One can continue with sumps and buckets, but the museum leadership must decide whether to fish or cut bait. A replacement slate roof is a big deal, but they may find it’s not that much more costly (and far more historically correct) than switching to asphalt shingles or some other material.
Wallingford: experience of those taking appeals demonstrates that assessment is a two-way street. A couple of the appeals resulted in major valuation increases, enough to give the appeal process a net positive effect on the grand list.
Wallingford: consultants report on the realignment ideas. If the greatest impact is the elimination of the portable school rooms – which some teachers reportedly prefer – and the goal is merely to save money, the motivation is far from compelling. If there’s a valid and positive educational result, then it’s worth considering seriously.
