It seems a rather sad end to a long employment for Southington’s head of Public Works and Engineering, leaving after nearly 40 years. Sometimes this is the only way.
That credit card abuse, source still unidentified, which has left innocent Wallingford customers and merchants as victims is as nasty as any we’ve heard. We hope the perps are apprehended soon.
And so with Cheshire schools’ 2012 budget requests of a 3 percent increase, we’re off and running on another year of this process. We hope it will not be as difficult in the new year as it was in the present year, but we’re not holding our breath.
Architectural plans are being discussed by planners and committees for Platt, and there seem to be some discussions over concept. One item to note is that plans for parking evidently include using the present Meriden skateboard park for parking, and we trust, if such a use transpires, that an alternate location for this well-used facility is in the planning.
No one seems to know why the FBI is investigating Meriden properties owned by Chief Cossette’s wife and son. This is a fairly typical process and probably we shall all know in the fullness of time.
It does appear that many members of Congress, both in House and Senate, are far from indigent. On the other hand, such things as average net worth of around a quarter of a million (as reported for members) should be compared to annual compensation of, say, the CEO of Northeast Utilities in Connecticut, who earned over $8 million in a single year.
Recess Rocks at Strong School, Southington, keeps elementary age kids moving and active when it’s not possible to go outdoors. Community Health Center of Middletown offered a fitness program which fit the needs.
Approval of a space in the former Napier factory by Meriden’s Zoning Board of Appeals for the Victorious House of Prayer, a church with need of larger quarters. This seems to be an appropriate place to authorize a use exception, and the church will join other tenants which include CEI Investment Corp. and New Opportunities for Greater Meriden, a warehouse for Tomassetti Distributors and a fitness and exercise studio.
