The Economic Development Subcommittee of the Town Council conducted their last session of this election term on Wednesday, Oct 29 at 5:45 PM. The agenda was mostly a repeat of that originally scheduled for Oct 15 which was then moved to the 29th.

All four members of the Subcommittee were present in Council Chambers.

Quick recap:
  • Multiple motions were made and approved to finalize the meeting minutes that were in some cases back to 2021. One amendment was made for one set to correct the name spelling o a couple of participants. Otherwise, all were approved as submitted with a 4-0 vote.
  • Multiple citizen made comments, many to thank them for their service and accomplishments, a couple to remind of work to be done next term, on the friendly 40b process, and the development of a Franklin specific 40b affordable unit calculation. (The State calculation is misleading on the number of affordable units in the community as it includes all of the units in an apartment complex when on a small number of them as actually affordable.)
  • The members of the reflected on their accomplishments, and Councilor Frongillo also included his 'wish list' of things remaining to be tackled.
