Franklin (MA) Matters

This session of the radio show shares my conversation with Jay Horrigan, Franklin resident, Franklin TV & Radio talent and fellow Board of Directors member for the Franklin Community Cable Access organization. We met to record this conversation in the studio on Thursday, May 16, 2024.  We spent enough time in the studio discussing current events that our wives were sending out queries as to where we were. The conversation is split into 3 sections to better enable sharing via the radio time slot (less than an hour).We talk about Jay’s story and what he keeps busy withSpend time to answer current issue questions June 11 override voteHow the $6.8M was determinedWhat is an override vs a debt exclusionDevelopment of the ‘fiscal cliff’ post COVIDState vs Commonwealth (no real difference in operation)Fund allocation from the override in FY 2025 and followingCoordination of Town and SchoolExplanation of the bigger ‘pie’, budget, etc.Franklin TV video archives of Town, School, and other committ
