Wallingford’s Town Council has taken the affirmative and innovative step of deciding to let tenants of the Housing Authority choose their own representative on the WHA. This is a positive development.
Massachusetts had tornados on Wednesday, with loss of life and huge dislocation and destruction of property. Imagine Missouri or Iowa or Indiana or Tennessee where this sort of thing happens regularly.
Meriden is working on the reimbursement issues for Platt and Maloney renovations. It’s always kind of under the gun, with everyone having to hurry to keep up with some deadline or some funding imperative.
If local residents get up in arms because their local hospital – which is part of a network as MidState is with Hartford/Southington/New Britain, etc. – has closed maternity operations, which would seem to be a reasonable business decision or arguably so, why are we not talking about public ownership of all the state’s hospitals? Then we could regulate them as we wish.
We hope the union membership approves the budget deal worked out with Governor Malloy. We also hope that Connecticut's fearmongers and the firebrands, of whatever stripe, don’t mess up this deal with misleading or inflammatory allegations that the agreement is something it’s not.
National Trails Day as observed locally, with wildlife and pond critters to meet at Panthorn Park, Southington, the official opening of Phase II in Southington, and with information events on Phase II for the Gorge/Quinnipiac Trail in Meriden.
Summer sidewalk sale in Wallingford, beginning July 14, which will excitingly include live music. There’s something to look forward to.
The upcoming Southington Education Foundation’s adult spelling bee, scheduled for June 16 at the high school. It’s generally cool to see adults cope with what their children must struggle with (and vice versa, of course), particularly to raise money.
