Sewage Plan Snag Ties Franklin and Carlisle Council
Franklin council altered a Carlisle regional sewage plan resolution from binding to studying, risking federal planning funds.

Franklin also moved to per capita radio dispatching for Carlisle police, costing Carlisle about $3,060 yearly with votes 3 to 1, Powell abstaining and Morgan voting no.
