Franklin council approves 2026 budget forms 1 and summary
Summary
On Sept. 15, 2025, the Franklin City Council approved the 2026 budget forms 1 and summary after an earlier public hearing on Sept. 2, moving the document forward to be readied for the council.
The Franklin City Council approved the city—s 2026 budget forms 1 and summary at its Sept. 15 meeting, advancing the document after a public hearing held Sept. 2.
The mayor (name not specified) said the budget "was introduced on the eighteenth" and noted the Sept. 2 public hearing before asking the council to act. A councilmember moved to approve the budget "as presented," a second was made, and all present voted "aye." The council then closed the item and moved to new business.
The approval followed the statutory public-notice and hearing process described by council staff during the budget introduction earlier this month. The council did not add amendments during the Sept. 15 session; the vote recorded that the budget, as presented, was approved by the members present.
The council will incorporate the approved forms into the council's next administrative steps for final adoption and implementation. No changes to tax rates or line-item amendments were made during the Sept. 15 action, and the meeting record does not show a recorded roll-call tally by name for the budget vote.
Members of the public had the opportunity to comment on the budget during the Sept. 2 hearing, per the mayor's and staff's remarks on the introduction schedule. The council's next regular meeting is scheduled for Oct. 6, 2025.
