From the Archives: Frank Falvey & I talk about possible charter changes (2021)

With the current Town Council expressing interest in possible charter changes, I bring this up from the archives. 

The 3 part series began in Dec 2021, continued in Jan 2022 and concluded in Feb 2022. 

"This shares my conversation with Frank Falvey, of Frank Presents, a long time Franklin resident and cable show host. This is the first of a 3 part series on the Town Charter, the process to change it, and some of the possible revisions that Frank and I discuss.  We start our discussion by painting the picture of the development of cable and radio broadcasting in Franklin and our individual show expansion.

Links to the current Town charter (modified in 2013) and the charter report for 1995 (prior changes) are included in the show notes. "
