The Editor's Notepod, Wed., Feb. 16, 2011

Resignations will definitely change the outlook at the Wallingford Housing Authority. It remains to be seen exactly what motivated them and what other consequences may ensue.

In the Cheshire home invasion murder trial proceedings, remember, once again, that attorneys have to take whatever legal and responsible steps are possible in the defense of their clients. It is the American way.

It would seem possible, somehow, for the state of Connecticut to compensate at least some of the businesses to be affected by elimination of exemptions with other tax treatments. But while there seems little justification for these exemptions, their removal will certainly make issues.

Southington officials are considering putting the town’s $12 million rainy day fund into more productive investments to improve income from the money. That makes sense, if care is taken to safeguard the reality that it’s the public’s money.

Possibility that Southington middle school kids will be able to obtain breakfasts at schools as early as April if details can be worked out. Kids learn better on stomachs full of nutritious food.
