While we’ve sympathy with the impulse which moved councilors to attempt to pull back a proposed rate hike in Wallingford Electric, the approximately 70 cent increase is almost too little to concern anyone. While any decision by the municipal company is certainly open to question by any elected official or the public, it’s best not to try for micromanagement of rates.
The young woman who fell from Mount Beseck in Middlefield last week is recovering, for which we are very glad, and she appears to have decided that “This little fall is going to stop me from going again. I hope people learn from me.”
A small group of “non-permanent” workers in child welfare, Stamford, appear to have been forgotten in the rescission of lay-offs during Connecticut’s budget crisis last summer. Workers in this area are needed on case files and the state can ill-afford the consequences of leaving this work undone.
The nighttime of Center Street Cemetery in Wallingford, set for Friday, with well-known local figures and high school students portraying well-known local figures and dead people is a wonderful history lesson. This is a fine entertainment for the season.
We wish the term “dead language” for Latin would disappear from Meriden and everywhere else. Regardless of a lack of native speakers, it remains the foundation of many important modern languages and cultures, and its orderly processes were used in the creation of many profound and important literary and scientific works.
Congratulations to the Queen and Hostesses of Southington’s Apple Harvest Festival this year, all of whom have worked and volunteered in community service for the honor.
