While other stores say no such change is planned, you can be sure they’ll be watching to see whether the self-checkout is missed.
Congratulations to George Kyriacou, president and CEO of Hanover Hospital in Pennsylvania, who has been selected as the new CEO of Gaylord Hospital in Wallingford. Turns out, he worked (before his stint in Pennsylvania) for local hospitals and so is no stranger to this area.
With the USPS facing a $3 billion annual deficit, it’s no surprise that it’s looking at closing or merging the Wallingford Southern Connecticut Processing and Distribution Center on Research Parkway (among many others) as a possible option. Considering that this site and the Wallingford PO employs 700 people, perhaps we should all consider sending mail instead of emailing, texting, tweeting and so on.
So the issue between Southington and Cheshire appears to be which town has to actually do the paperwork to support the probate court? That is, how is the “burden” of writing out checks for copier rental, microfilm and office supplies to be allocated? This question answers itself.
Probabilities seem good that a $1.1 million bond issue to cover the Columbus Avenue Bridge reconstruction effort to control Meriden flooding will be on the State Bond Commission’s agenda next week. It’s a one step at a time process, but each step is welcome.
