During a recent government meeting, the Franklin City Council unanimously approved several key resolutions aimed at enhancing local infrastructure and promoting sustainability.
The meeting commenced with the approval of a resolution concerning special assessments for sanitary sewer improvements on Hamlet Drive. After a brief public hearing, the council moved swiftly to vote, with all members in favor, indicating strong support for the necessary upgrades to the city's sewer system.
Following this, the council addressed the adoption of the Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy Resiliency Program (CPACER). This initiative is designed to facilitate clean energy projects within the city, allowing commercial developments to invest in renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. Alderman Peterson expressed enthusiasm for the program, highlighting its potential to reduce reliance on traditional energy sources and promote sustainability in Franklin.
However, a minor correction was noted during the discussion. Alderman Peterson pointed out an error in the resolution that referred to Shelby County instead of Williamson County. The council agreed to amend this detail before finalizing the resolution.
Overall, the meeting underscored the council's commitment to improving infrastructure and advancing clean energy initiatives, reflecting a proactive approach to community development and environmental responsibility.
