Utilities Director


The major directive given to the Public Utilities Director is to help assure that one of our region’s most valuable assets - water - is treated and distributed safely to the City's customers and to oversee the disposal of wastewater to ensure that it is processed properly to protect our receiving waters and downstream users from pollution.


Working closely with the Franklin General Authority Board, engineers, and the City Manager, the Public Utilities Director provides technical, administrative, and environmental regulatory-related oversight in the daily operations of the Franklin Water and Wastewater Departments, which include the Water Treatment Plant, Water Network, Wastewater Treatment Plant and Wastewater Network.
