This recording shares the Finance Committee meeting held at the Senior Center on Tuesday, January 8, 2019.
The meeting is the first of two to review the Capital Budget by the Finance Committee. Today’s meeting will review the following agenda:
- Fire
- Police
- Public Works
- Sewer Enterprise
- Water Enterprise
The second meeting, scheduled for Jan 15 will cover the remainder of the capital budget:
- Schools
- Facilities
- Technology
- Recreation
After hearing all the presentations, the Finance Committee will vote to recommend some or all of these (with or without modifications) to be brought to the Town Council for their review and vote.
The complete agenda documents for the Jan 8 and 15 meetings can be found on the Town of Franklin pages as follows:

Note: the document is a single PDF file with 166 pages, so it will take some time to download/open.
The total meeting recording runs just about 2 hours. Without further ado, here is the audio recording.

This podcast is my public service effort for Franklin but I can't do it alone. I can always use your help.
How can you help?
In particular, if you have an interest in real estate, zoning or construction, I would like someone to follow the Planning Board, Zoning Board of Appeals, and Conservation Commission meetings. I’ll provide the guidance on note taking and sharing. You need to bring an inquisitive and open mind and willingness to learn and share.
Overall:
- If you can use the information that you find here, please tell your friends and neighbors
- If you don't like this, please let me know
Through this feedback loop we can continue to make improvements.
I thank you for listening.
