The Town of Franklin Open Space & Recreation Plan Overview with Breeka Li Goodlander (audio)

 FM #922 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 922 in the series. 

This session of the radio show shares my introductory conversation with the Town of Franklin Conservation Agent Breka Li Goodlander, CWS, PWS. We had our conversation via conference bridge.  


This session we spend time talking about the Open Space & Recreation Plan (OSRP) now being updated

  • OSRP is part of the Master Plan, a plan for a plan

  • Inventory of open space & recreation assets

  • Input from community to build plan, feedback from community on plan draft

  • Series of focus groups, public forums, survey, etc. used to gather the input


The conversation runs about 16 minutes. Let’s listen to my conversation with Breeka Li. Audio file -> https://franklin-ma-matters.captivate.fm/episode/fm-922-town-of-franklin-open-space-recreation-plan-overview-01-12-23
