Summary

At the Aug. 3 council meeting the chair presented the Carolyn Williams Volunteer of the Year award and the citation named 'Deb's Dublin' as the recipient (spelling as transcribed). The chair thanked volunteers for their service to Franklin City.

The council paused its regular business to present the Carolyn and Marty Williams Volunteer of the Year award. The chair asked a person identified in the agenda as Carolyn to join the presentation and council members read the award citation naming the recipient as "Deb's Dublin" (spelling preserved from the transcript).

The chair emphasized the council’s appreciation for volunteers, saying, "If it wasn't for the volunteers, I promise you Franklin would not be what it is today." The award citation cited "outstanding dedication and commitment to volunteer service in the community." The award was introduced as a city recognition rather than a formal council action requiring a vote.

The presentation was brief and followed by council congratulations.
