Economic Development Commission Meeting 8-27-2026 - 6 PM

The City of Franklin, Wisconsin Economic Development Commission met on August 27, 2026. It approved the July 30 meeting minutes and entered closed session under Wisconsin Statute 19.85(1)(e) to deliberate on potential commercial, industrial, and manufacturing developments; the transcript provides no substantive details from that discussion. In open session, commissioners planned the Business Appreciation event, keeping its existing name and flexible format while discussing its date, theme, and award categories. They reviewed nominees for business and leadership awards and approved the nominee slate by motion. No contracts, purchasing decisions, spending allocations, or other procurement activity were identified.

The commission also discussed scheduling its next meeting, with October 29 considered and a motion and second recorded. The transcript does not clearly capture a final vote on that date.
