Published on: 26th December, 2022

This session of the radio show shares the audio recording of my conversation with Melanie Hamblen and Cobi Frongillo. We met in the Franklin TV Studio on Monday, Dec 19, 2022.

We talked about inclusionary zoning and other zoning items from the “Franklin For All” project which are now in the review and discussion process with the Economic Development Subcommittee that Melanie Chairs and for which Cobi is Vice-Chair. 

The recording of our conversation on zoning runs about 45 minutes. Let’s listen in.
