Old Business:
Response to Mr. Morrissette List of Questions and Request for Additional Statistics

Mr. Morrissette stated that the purpose of the additional statistics was meant to wrap up the
PPFD Board’s work for preparing for a proposition on the Franklin County ballot in mid-2022.
He then referred to his first handout provided during the meeting. Next Mr. Morrissette
discussed his second handout and how he envisioned the information in the handout would be
used when providing information to the public after the proposition is placed on a ballot.
The PPFD Board discussed the handouts and how they might be used.

the PPFD Board will need to be reviewed and approved before it is made public to ensure the
