Wallingford: rate increases for water/sewer are significant. Can that all be because of a drop in consumption?
A little less concern over “adult” businesses and a little more about more tangible problems would help some folks in Southington to get along together better. It’s one thing to step up to the plate for appropriate litigation, and quite another to invoke a lawsuit which is almost certainly a loser.
If Meriden’s neighborhoods can manage somehow to reduce the number of absentee landlords as part of an EPA grant focused on brownfields and blight (with the help of consultant Vita Nuova), they’ll have done something no one else has managed to do. But the getting together and airing issues and concerns and hopes is a good step to take to build community.
Meriden’s tax rate seems all but set, and, while it’s going to be an increase, the increase is fairly minimal, all things considered.
The Quinnipiac River in Southington will have its cleanup event today, with David Crookes and his “river rats.” Towns depend on volunteers like this to take care of our resources, but the good news is that the cleaner Quinnipiac seems to be generating new respect.
