The Editor's Notepod, Mon., Nov. 7, 2011

CL&P didn’t make its target, but they tried and they came fairly close. That’s no comfort to those who are still darkened in Meriden, Southington or Cheshire.

Southington, we should recall, has a referendum on middle schools tomorrow, which is a major commitment and a major expenditure. We hope it passes.

The state is going to have a hearing in Wallingford on adding a lane to route 68 between Route 5 and 150. This is a major idea, probably long overdue and far in the future. While they’re at it, why not fix the three-way situation so that the Merritt can exit directly onto 68 somehow?

Band demonstrations to help high school band programs with middle schoolers is a good and necessary plan. Southington, Wallingford and Meriden also send kids to band camp in the summer.
