The Editor's Notepod, Tue., Apr. 27, 2010

Wallingford: KeyBank, which seems to hold the mortgage for Workstage-Connecticut, builder of the corporate headquarters for defunct Mortgage Lenders, has paid off one-half the taxes due, perhaps forestalling the town’s tax foreclosure action. Whatever happens, that’s $400,000 in town coffers.

Meriden: there is definitely some confusion about the purposes of calling 911, and the uses of emergency services and police. Educational efforts need to be very clear about acceptable reasons, and, we suppose, prosecution is appropriate in an egregious case of misuse.

US Transportation Secretary, Ray LaHood was in Connecticut to help move the New Haven-Hartford-Springfield rail improvement project along. The corridor is high on the priorities list and we may actually see a renewal of the line in our lifetimes.
