Expanded Film-Making Schedule Approved By Council; Franklin Deemed ‘Film Ready’

ACTION! – The designation of Franklin as a “Film Ready Community” by the state is hoped to bring to the township more movie crews, such as this one filming David Duchovny’s “Bucky F*ing Dent” over several days in September 2022.

Fresh on the heels of Franklin being designated one of the first “Film Ready Communities” in the state, the Township Council on March 14 extended the time period when film crews can work in the Eight Villages.

The Council at the meeting gave final approval to an amendment to the Township’s filming ordinance, allowing for movies and other filmed productions to be shot in residential zones from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week. Previously, film shoots were allowed in residential zones from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Fridays.
