I’m told that at an awards ceremony tonight (Tuesday), Franklin Mayor Tom Taylor specifically singled out Franklin Aldermen Steve Taylor and Ken Skowronski for being supporters of the police department.
Really?
Is my friend, and he is, our mayor, asleep at meetings?
As I have blogged, the mayor has vetoed the budget approved by the Franklin Common Council recently. The mayor in his veto message wrote:

No kidding. He was right on there. The Common Council, led by Finance Committee Chairman Steve Taylor, voted to chop the Police Department by $100,000 and the Fire Department by $100,000. Support for public safety?
