Attention FHS Class of 2022! The Friends of the Franklin Library will once again be providing a $1,000 scholarship to a college-bound graduating senior from Franklin High School.
The scholarship, in memory of Wilma Winters, will be awarded to a student who is a Franklin resident, has done well academically, and has contributed to both FHS and the Franklin community.
Applications, including this year's essay prompt, will be available from the FHS Guidance Department in early March. We look forward to reading your submissions!
For more information, please contact fofl02038@gmail.com .

FM #743 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 743 in the series.
This shares the Economic Development Subcommittee Plus meeting that was held on Wednesday, March 2, 2022.
The meeting was started in a hybrid mode; all four Town Council committee members (Hamblen - Chair, Jones, Frongillo and Sheridan) were present. The two representatives from the Planning Board (Greg Rondeau, Beth Wierling) and the representative from the ZBA (Bruce Hunchard) form the “EDC+” “Franklin For All Steering Committee.”
The MAPC representatives participated via the Zoom connection. Some public participants and the Town Administration staff were in person. Other public participants were connected via the Zoom conference bridge.
Links to the meeting agenda and my notes are in the show notes.
