As announced by the Franklin Town Clerk, the biannual election is scheduled for November 7, 2017. The whole set of School Committee and Town Council membership is up for election. All other board/committee elected positions fulfill staggered terms to ensure some continuity. Yes, it would make sense that for continuity sake and the institutional knowledge that could be lost both the Town Council and School Committee should also be staggered terms but they are not. That has been the will of the Franklin voters.
The new Town of Franklin webpage shows the open or vacant positions appointed or elected. To save some time, I have captured a screenshot for each of the boards/committee with elected positions this November.
If you want to get started volunteering on a board or committee that is appointed rather than elected, there are several current openings as shown below.
You can inquire on this page and check the ‘vacant’ box to get the current info
