Downtown Project - Public Hearing - Jun 28 7:00 PM
The MassDOT will hold a public hearing on the RT 140 and Downtown Project on Thursday, Jun 28 at 7:00 PM. The hearing will be conducted at the Municipal Bldg in the 3rd Floor Training Room. (Note due to this choice of location in the Municipal Bldg, the hearing is not likely scheduled for broadcast via cable.)
Additional info on the public hearing can be found in this official notification
Why a public hearing?
The project is funded by the State of MA and hence MassDOT has controlling interest. The project delays are primarily due to the State schedules. Franklin was granted the funds at $1 M per year and waited for the $5 million total was accumulated before beginning the detail planning on this project.

Farmers Market
The Farmers Market opens today and will run every Friday through November 2.
It will open at noon on the Town Common and close at 6:00 PM.
I am not sure whether the red chili peppers that caught my eye last year will be available today or not. Stop by to see and buy the good fresh produce from the local area farmers like Grateful Farm.
Note: The Franklin Food Pantry does purchase CSA shares from Grateful Farm for distribution to our neighbors.
