The Editor's Notepod, Sat., Oct. 9, 2010

Wallingford: whatever the problem, the Town Hall needs to have its front fixed so that bits and pieces don’t fall down on passersby. On the other hand, there’s no need to run about like Chicken Little either; just get the job done.

Meriden: plans by United Oil Recovery to create a railroad siding near its Gracey Avenue site to enable transfer of hazardous wastes onto railroad transport for removal. This strikes us as a wise move since it removes dangerous trucks from streets and highways.

Southington: with disposal costs for recycling and trash at the Bristol facility dropping, one might think that trash collectors might have passed some reduction on to their customers. But none of the customers seem to have seen such a thing, and at least some of the trash haulers seem to have missed the reduction memo from the facility.
