FM #354 Talk Franklin - 9/25/20 (audio)

FM #354 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 354 in the series. 


This session of the radio show shares my "Talk Franklin" conversation with Town Administrator Jamie Hellen and Marketing and Communications Specialist Anne Marie Tracey. We had our conversation via conference bridge to adhere to the ‘social distancing’ requirements of this pandemic period.


We talk about: 

  • Temporary town clerk, election prep underway

  • Municipal aggregation, opt out of savings (waiting list for Nexamp)

  • Micro-enterprise grants – applications available

  • Business listening session Sep 30, first of series

  • ThinkBlue winners coming next week


Links to the key topics covered here are included in the show notes. The recording runs about 40 minutes, so let’s listen to my conversation with Jamie and Anne Marie.
