Published on: 27th April, 2023

This session of the radio show is the audio recording of the Franklin, MA Capital Budget Subcommittee meeting conducted on Wednesday, April 26, 2023. All four members of the subcommittee were present: Chair Debbie Pellegri, Vice Chair Bob Dellorco, Ted Cormier-leger, Brian Chandler. 

Town Administrator Jamie Hellen, Comptroller Chris Sandinni, Treasurer/Collector Kerri Bertone, Superintendent Lucas Giguere, Business Manager Miriam Goodman, Town Clerk Nancy Danello, DPW Director Brutus Cantoreggi (a few minutes after start of meeting) were also present in the 3rd Floor Training Room.

This meeting covered the second round of capital budgeting. The first round was handled earlier this year. Now that the winter and snow/ice effects are behind us, what had been put aside initially can now be distributed. 

The four items on the agenda were discussed and all approved after discussion by a 4-0 vote to bring forward to the Town Council.

The recording runs about 57 minutes, so let’s listen in.
