Area: The dust-up over fishing licenses and hunting licenses as well as park fees seems kind of futile. First, such increases are unlikely to break anyone’s bank, just as increases in drivers’ licenses are the stuff of grumbles – but everyone pays. Second, unlike motor vehicle fees, the actual increases amount, state-wide to not all that much cash, so that, apart from making a statement of state penury, the raises are pointless. Why not raise fees and then allow people without means to apply for waivers?
Wallingford: The trial of the American Legion building will not be decided for weeks yet as Judge Berdon considers his verdict. Verdict? This is a trial without jury, so the judge acts as trier of both fact and law.
State: the House passed a budget bill 147 to 1 in an almost incredible demonstration of bipartisanship. This is a good move on both parties’ parts, and we hope they can stick to it.
