It appears that Meriden’s two high school projects have hit something of a snag regarding reimbursement rates from the state for these $220 million worth of renovations. If the city cannot qualify as a new project – because it isn’t – and cannot qualify as a renovation – because it’s too large, we’d better get ourselves back to the drawing board.
Questions being raised concerning flood control and stream maintenance in downtown Meriden are matters which have had every chance of being raised over the last dozen years. One serious focus of the entire process is and has been to bring the brook out from underground through the Hub and to make an attractive cityscape there
The lateness of Southington’s Grand List is an annoyance or not, depending on one’s point of view, but it’s not cause for serious concern, since there’s quite a while before anyone needs to fix the tax rate. New software is, alas, always a problem.
Chris Donovan’s push for a hike in Connecticut’s minimum wage is something apt to set off shock waves for the Meriden legislator seeking nomination for the 5th Congressional district, particularly if Governor Malloy is less-than-enthusiastic. But the real underlying question is one of cost: how many jobs would such an increase affect and how much would it cost?
It is good to see physical and health education teacher Chris Puzio at Parker Farms School in Wallingford using a Smart Board to good effect. The incorporation of technology into the educational process is essential to health of both gadgets and schooling.
