Punishment of Franklin library has point
by Alison McCall/Daily News staff
Yes, the punishment does have a point. We need to pay attention to the details in the Town budget. The budget cut was discussed and approved by the Town Council in Jun 2011. How many folks attended those budget hearings? Not many. So it is now a surprise that the decertification has happened.
The Finance Committee Budget hearing on the Library was not recorded so it is not available on video replay. The Town Council budget hearings are available. If you missed what happened then, you can still view that now:
Budget hearing Jun 8, 2011 -
In the first hearing, no 'holds' were put on the Library budget so no additional discussion or questions for details and impact was shown.
Budget hearing Jun 9, 2011 -

In the second hearing, there was discussion around the Fire Dept staffing but nothing on the Library.
