red sky at morning, Franklin take warning


Yes, this was the sunrise on Thursday morning. The morning after the Town Council voted for an override of $2.7 Million which even if passed would still force cuts across every town service.

The morning of a rainy day forecast. Not the rainy day kind that allows for raiding the "rainy day fund" as some councilors feel they have an obligation to do to avoid the inevitable, that is finding a way for Franklin to raise sufficient finding to sustain itself.

The photo is from my yard looking across the trees to open space that had been there since we came to Franklin (11 years ago) and is now being built upon. More house, more families, more children.

Shouldn't some one tell them that even if the budget override does pass their children will not be provided the same educational support that my daughters received when they graduated in 2004 and 2006?
