Franklin Council Meeting on YouTube

Someone managed to get a clip of the Town Council meeting that voted for the override and post it to YouTube. Thank you!

Here is Carlo Geronimo with his comments before one of the override votes.


Yes, there were multiple override votes. One for $4 million failed to pass the council by a 5-4 vote. The one for $3 million passed on a 5-4 vote.

Carlo said:
"If we don't go for a $4 million override, Mister Chairman, we are in deep trouble..."

Well we are in trouble as we have only a $3 million override to vote on.

Either way we vote, another million is coming from the stabilization fund. If it passes, the million will help to balance the budget. If it fails, the million will be used for unemployment insurance for the school personnel to be laid off.
