Hello One Franklin,
The Franklin Town Council has voted to put an override on the ballot for a special election on June 3rd, following the recommendation by the Joint Budget Subcommittee (JBSC) last week.
It is time to activate One Franklin to ensure that this override passes, and it is going to take a full team effort!
We are looking for volunteers for our field and community engagement team. The purpose of these teams is to educate and inform the broader community about the override, and the importance of voting YES to preserve Franklin's public safety, public services and public schools.
Community Engagement & Field Team
Please complete this form to share with the One Franklin Community Engagement & Field team how you'd like to engage in the coming weeks (more information on the different opportunities below)! Any level of engagement is welcome and needed, and please pass this along to others who might be interested.
We will be scheduling 2 volunteer trainings in late March/early April to provide resources and answer questions so all volunteers feel comfortable engaging in conversations with community members and elected officials. Please let us know within the form what time of day/day of week is best for you within the form so we can do our best to accommodate the majority of volunteers.
If you have any questions, please email onefranklinvolunteers@gmail.com.
Thank you for helping us pass this override, together!
One Franklin Team
Ways to Engage - let us know how you want to engage here:
Precinct Captains: Identify hosts and organize conversations with friends and neighbors in homes and/or in neighborhood establishments (e.g. restaurants, coffee shops, etc.). Elected officials and One Franklin members can also attend to answer questions.
Community Liaisons: Connect with smaller communities within Franklin (e.g. faith-based communities, pre-schools, clubs, etc.) and organize a couple people to host conversations in their homes and/or in neighborhood establishments.
The precinct captains and community liaisons will work in conjunction with the One Franklin Community Engagement & Field Teams to facilitate and coordinate these events.
Sign placement: Purchase sign(s) to place on your yard and in other high-trafficked areas in town.
Literature drops/canvassing: Walk specific streets and neighborhoods to share information via flyers in the couple of weeks leading up to the override vote on June 3rd.
Donations: If you'd like a sign, we'd appreciate a $10 donation. If you are interested in and able to donate more, please do - these dollars will be used to promote the override vote and educate the community.
