It is good that Sgt. Wuterich and his attorneys have managed to bring these protracted hearings to an end. We hope the Meriden native may now proceed to whatever is next for him in life, and that the nation can put this incident aside and that harm done to civilians on the other side in that war can be peacefully remedied.
Wild fluctuations in the price of gasoline would be troubling, and it has always been a wonder how events across the world can cause prices to rise at the pump on gas which has already been purchased by retailers or by distributing companies. That said, a 30-cent difference in the price of a gallon amounts to only 10 percent or so and makes little long-range difference to anyone, and as for any windfall to Connecticut coffers, that’s all to the good, considering how desperate the straits it is in.
The Meriden Housing Authority will work with a residents’ committee on issues about affordable housing and the future of public housing, which makes sense to do on several grounds. We hope a way is found to process and respond to input developed by this committee or it will be somewhat pointless.
Lots of people can accept the notion that there will be parking arranged at the Wooding-Caplan property in Wallingford, about which the town is preparing a report for the Council. It is the word “temporary” which causes some concern, as once it’s there, it seems unlikely anyone will continue to find alternative parking, an issue which has left burn marks on many political skins.
It seems that “bait and switch” is a little tough to use on the fact that estimates for sewer installations in Southington were badly off. Sewers are necessary, really, and they’re going to cost what they cost.
