I’ve lived in the same 5th Ward neighborhood for over 50 years, with four generations of my family. We’ve always been active in Township activities. While  building my home in 2000, I got involved with the workings of Municipal Government. I attended several Council, Planning Board and other Town meetings. As a volunteer I helped launch FTTV-29, so that Franklin could broadcast its meetings and events. I served on the Health Advisory Board and YMCA Steering Committee. I was elected to serve as your 5th Ward Councilman and was twice appointed Deputy Mayor. I’ve attended  90% of Council meetings and hundreds more Committee and Board meetings. I’ve been involved with all aspects of Municipal operations.
