Override Central a poor excuse for a blog

The left column table is still out of date. How long does it take to create a proper update? Once you scroll to the bottom of the first page, you can't navigate to any prior articles. So you are totally dependent upon their search feature. (I find it cute that my postings tend to turn up before their own published articles.) You don't get to leave comments, anonymous or otherwise. Hey, isn't a blog supposed to be a tool to enable conversation? Do you use Override Central? What do you think of it?

Light blogging alert

Franklin is facing a budget override and I anticipate that I will be busy helping to get the vote turned out for May 22. It really is a mayday call to Franklin. The Town Council decision to put forward a $2.7 Million Proposition 2 ½ override still leaves all departments short of their budget requests and will require cuts to the services provided for in the current fiscal year. Exactly what that means to Franklin is still being sorted out. Amongst the items discussed IF the override passes would still be approx 25-30 school personnel cuts, Fire, Police, DPW cuts, library shut. Stay tuned for the details. IF the override fails, the picture gets worse real quick! PS - check the scrolling headlines for Steve's 2 Cents to keep up with the override.
