Leaving New London is now good for business, who's surprised with the commies in charge.

If we only had the money it would make a great location for a museum on the history of N.L. andRead More curator could be handle by Clark. Ah to dream.

Mike you mention on a show that Jennings School might be a good location for the seniors. At firstRead More thought I was agreeing with you until I talk to a few of the seniors. There is a lot of things the seniors do during the day that would not be possible for them to do. Like prepare meals to be delivered to other seniors who are home bound. There are other things also. How much money is the city going to have to pay on a regular bases to keep a comm. center running. That's if the city has to pay at all. If we do then why having we done it for the senior center in the past and what make you or anyone think we can do it now. We need to have a solid plan for the seniors and all the other people who used the center. Without that I as one voting taxpayer could not support selling the center or building a comm. center. Maybe we could fix up the post office as a senior center and get our new O.P@D. to seek out grants and other ways to pay for it. I'm sure Tammy would love the challenge.

Uh...This is ridiculous. When people were at the budget meeting requesting that The MartinRead More Center/Rec/Senior Center remain open and properly funded , this was not even mentioned. The City Council's words are definitely misleading.... At first we learned about the the budget issue and they made it a point to say- They were not cutting these programs...So how is this not going to cut these programs and facilities.... "redeveloping into apartments" COME ON!!!! are we going to be guaranteed that the programs will be kept and funded properly ... does anyone know whats going on? (not sarcastic, I really don't know) how do we get a clear overall picture of what New London is doing if the information the city council gives is unclear and given in different pieces at different times- sometimes when it's to late.

It is going to be interesting if they even get a response!

The contracts are probably written in the best interest of the developer and the city will getRead More screwed yet again.

If you want to identify the problem, just look around that table. Please go away. You've screwedRead More the fort up at every turn and you don't deserve another chance. Sternloff, Joplin, Johnson must go. And truth be told, with a few notable exception, the people making up the former nldc are there for their ego and their blind support of the aforementioned incompetents and their cocktail party relationships.
Spencer May 18, 2013 at 09:20 am
I had to laugh. Dirk opened up the article calling the plan a 'housing project'!!! Good oneRead More Dirk!! really good one!!!

Dirk, I'm begging you to change the format back. You are quickly be moving irrelevant because no onRead More can find anything. Please review number of comments as proof of your demise. Save yourself.

Please dissolve the NLDC/RCDA Mayor Finizio!! How could the city let a land of such value be givenRead More away for a private entity to make a profit? Especially after tearing out the hearts of so many residences by enacting Eminent Domain, which was so highly contested by the city, and proving to be completely ignorant of the potential risks in speculating corporate and real estate growth. Shame on the city, let there be reparation!!
Spencer May 17, 2013 at 12:05 pm
I find it fascinating that this story isn't being covered by the State's media or even nationalRead More media for that matter. Surely the Citizens of this country would LOVE to know what the aftermath of the historic Supreme Court's decision in the Government's favor??? Is this no longer news worthy??
Michael Casteel May 20, 2013 at 08:39 am
I had to laugh this morning when reading The Day's "editorial" on this matter. What reallyRead More cracked me up was the line about the real estate market improving. Really? Then why are half the units in Harbour Towers still available? Why do sellers keep reducing prices and still find no buyers? It is worthy of note The Day chose NOT to allow comments on that bit of drivel.
