| Master Plan Update Committee agenda for Oct 23 meeting at 5:30 PM |
FM #1285 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 1285 in the series.
This session shares the Franklin (MA) Master Plan Update Committee meeting held on Wednesday, October 2, 2024. 10 members participated, 8 in the Council Chambers (Jones, Hamblen, Carlucci, Halligan, Hagen, Williams, Powers), 2 remote (Lange, Hunchard), absent (Frongillo, Gallagher, Stelzer, ?).
Quick recap:
The Master Plan Update Committee met as scheduled on Wednesday evening, Oct 2, 2024. Much of the meeting worked through the details of how to process the comments etc. coming back from the Town departments on the proposed implementation plan.
Ultimately reaching agreement to work on the next update in subcommittee sessions to be scheduled over the next 2 weeks so the comment reviews etc. and updates can be sent back to Amy Love by Oct 20 or Oct 21 so that can be consolidated for review by the committee at their next full meeting Oct 23.
The community will get to see the 'final' master plan doc proposal early in November and have time for review and comment. Details on what forums or formats the feedback will be taken were not specifically determined. Likely to be similar to what had been done for other efforts (like the Open Space Plan).
The timeline then would have the committee incorporate the community feedback in December, to present the 'final' version to the Planning Board and Town Council at meetings in January 2025.
The recording runs about 50 minutes, so let’s listen in. Audio link -> https://franklin-ma-matters.captivate.fm/episode/fm-1285-master-plan-update-cmte-mtg-10-02-24/

Quick recap:
Meeting opened by Chair Jones, round of updates from each subcommittee chair, many have not met since the public hearing to incorporate the feedback gathered, one had, others scheduling, or have scheduled such sessions
Much time spent reviewing the internal committee working doc on objectives section by section
Doc formatting to be worked on by Beta & Barrett to set up goals, objectives, and actions for subcommittees to fill in the responsibilities, priorities, etc.
Next meeting for the committee scheduled for Aug 21 to work on the implementation steps, as well as iron out the cross points among the subcommittees, and continue work on the language for the objectives to be voted on by the committee
Discussion around if this could be accomplished in the next session, or if another session is needed. The current timeline for presentation to the Planning Board and Town Council in September acknowledged that it is not going to be met. As the session was over an hour longer than planned, side conversation between Taberner, Jones, and Beta/Barrett to be held and then provide an update to the committee on possible timeline adjustments
