The Editor's Notepod, Wed., Mar. 2, 2011

Meriden’s school board has reduced its budget request for next year by 0.15 percent thanks to the success of an early retirement plan. It seems a reasonable approach to funding, but we’ll see if the city council accepts it.

It looks like a plan for those abandoned unfinished homes on Meriden Avenue in Southington. While it involves razing those two structures, the plan is to recycle and to change from condos to single family houses, which is making the neighbors happy.

The interesting article about Connecticut liquor laws and their effect on competition and taxes should help folks in making up their minds on this issue. But it remains complex.
