FM #703 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 703 in the series.
This shares my conversation with Town Council Chair Tom Mercer. This is one of a series of conversations meant to provide a recap of the prior Council meeting. Akin to one of the many sports post-game analysis broadcasts we are familiar with in New England, this would be a discussion focused on the Franklin Town Council meeting of January 19, 2022:
ok, what just happened?
What does it mean for Franklin residents and taxpayers?
We cover the following key topics
Moment of silence for former Councilor Andy Bissanti
Proclamation/Recognition: Police Department
Retirement - Sgt. Brian Johnson
Retirement - Patrol Officer Rick Grover
Moving On - Kallie Montagano, Clinical Social Worker
FY23 Department of Public Works Budget & Enterprise Fund Preview
