The Editor's Notepod, Thur., June 3, 2010

Meriden: It would seem that the water filtration or water treatment plant is in need of replacement, not really surprising, since the plant is reportedly 83 years old. This is a really important aspect of the $12 million plan, which may only incidentally improve the taste or smell of the water, is justifiable on those grounds.

The jury selection process in the Cheshire home invasion murders case is finished for one defendant. People should not expect this to be quick, since the death penalty is involved: considering the expense and the care with which each step of the process will be watched, it must be done right with all possibilities to be examined – or face the strong possibility of having to do it all over again.

Southington: having to stop paving projects that are 90 or 98 percent completed because of the need to take some action on the cost overruns is a kind of awkward way of handling such problems. Surely, there is no possibility of leaving things just as they are, “almost finished”?
