Despite financial benefits, both Nutting and Whalen agree the only foreseeable drawback is a loss of control over town services.
"We, as residents of our community, can control the level of town services we enjoy," Whalen said, citing the controlled number of town workers. "With regionalization, by definition, we as residents of Franklin would have less of a say in what goes on right in our town on these matters because we would be part of a larger group of people who would collectively make these decisions."
"You have to be willing to give up control, " said Nutting. "But that's (for) the people in the government, not the residents."-----------------
The Registry of Motor Vehicles offers an online service that will remind drivers 30 days before their driver’s license is due to expire.
Residents who sign up for the service can choose a reminder by phone, email or text and there is no additional cost to the public.
The new service replaces the mail reminder program that was discontinued earlier this year as a cost-saving measure.
The new reminder service is provided by the RMV in collaboration with Sendza, Inc. and is sponsored by local businesses. Any information you provide is protected by a strict privacy policy.
Drivers are encouraged to sign up for the program. For more information visit www.mass.gov/rmv.

Franklin resident Steve Sherlock announced the Laid Off Camp he helped organize for tomorrow is canceled.
Designed to help unemployed people from Massachusetts and Rhode Island brush up on interview techniques, making contacts and using the Internet to find jobs, the camp was canceled due to slow registration.
"We only achieved one third of the required registrations for this non-profit, all-volunteer event to break even," Sherlock wrote in an email late last night. Anyone who already registered will have their money refunded, he added.
He and the four other co-organizers will likely establish a similar camp next year. The event was scheduled for tomorrow afternoon at the Living Waters Church in North Attleborough.
