Among the items on the Town Council agenda is approval of the new fee for curbside pickup. Discussion on the line item should occur on Wednesday, the actual vote to approve is scheduled for Thursday's session.
l. By-Law Amendment 24-911: Chapter 82, Municipal Service Fees Bylaw to Amend the Code of the Town of Franklin at Chapter 82, Curbside Trash Fee - First Reading (Motion to Move Bylaw Amendment 24-911 to a Second Reading - Majority Vote)
This is a significant increase this year and per Town info, due to items beyond our control. Once China stopped accepting recycling, our rates have increased. Inflation has seen more of an effect this year than previous. All that and for the first time since 2005, our rates exceed $300/year. Overall, that is a pretty good story.
