For someone who spent 20 years in a Connecticut prison for a crime he evidently did not commit in Wallingford, Kenneth Ireland is remarkably calm. It’s hard to understand who the state did not offer him compensation for his wrongful conviction and why he is obliged to sue for his supper.
Meriden councilor Brian Daniels and landlord Ross Gulino make interesting comments on downtown property usage based on census data which reveal that there isn’t enough income among downtown dwellers to support small restaurants and shops. This places proposals by Housing Authority to buy the former “Professional Building” at 137-42 West Main and turn it into permanent housing for the homeless in a different light.
It makes excellent sense that places like the Meriden Humane Society and Best Friends for Life Animal Rescue in Southington ask would-be pet adopters a number of questions. This process can disappoint some people, but shelters need to try and protect the animals in their care from casual adopters who might not treat animals as most of us would like them treated.
Connecticut’s Supreme Court has issued an order adopting congressional redistricting with minor changes from present lines, as Democrats had asked. It is good to get this process done and the state is lucky to have three out of five districts which are potentially competitive.
