This session of the radio show shares our “Talk Franklin” discussion with Town Administrator Jamie Hellen and School Superintendent Lucas Giguere. We had our conversation in the Town Administrator's office on Monday, September 9, 2023.  

September brings

• Renovation to Town offices, process improvements
• School re-opening
• Redistricting planning
• Joint Budget Subcommittee starts Sep 11 to work on budget for FY 2026
• More engaged now, need to bring them along the discussion on wish list items, what do we really need, and then prioritize accordingly

The recording runs about 50 minutes. Let’s listen to my conversation with Jamie and Lucas
