Everyone in Meriden, Wallingford, Southington and Cheshire has been waiting to see what could be worse than 30 inches of snow covering the ground and clogging the transportation arteries. Well, check out today’s freezing whatever-it-is, and you can easily answer that question.
In Southington, three-quarters of the liquor stores checked in the second round of compliance sting operations failed the test and sold to a minor. This is after police and Southington Town-wide Effort to Promote Success (STEPS) have visited every outlet in town and received appreciation. So what is it that is not being understood?
Finally, a sale of the 250 acres of Powder Ridge, under terms which require improvements and reopening of the ski area while providing reverter to the town of Middlefield if it doesn’t work out. It will be good to see the place in operation again, and we wish the Colorado company, Alpine Associates of Crested Butte, the best of luck.
Meriden used the reverse 911 call system for the first time this week to good effect. The message, to remove cars from the streets because of pending snow storm, worked and many fewer vehicles needed to be towed away, which is the point of the whole idea. And besides, using the call system is a vast improvement over driving around town with a bull horn.
