Town of Franklin: Storm recovery update as of Tuesday, Feb 23 - 4:00 PM

Update bullet points from TA Hellen on tomorrow's municipal office hours:

The Municipal Building will reopen tomorrow during regular business hours with skeleton crews for all offices to reduce parking as some work remains and we need to keep some space available throughout the day for residents.
