Franklin Township Democratic Party

I am a former Mayor of Franklin Township and an At-large Councilwoman. I currently serve as Commissioner on of the Franklin Township Redevelopment Agency, which is responsible for assisting the Township of Franklin in the revitalization of the Renaissance Redevelopment Area. I am currently the Founder and of the Franklin Youth Initiative and the leader of FYI Career Expo for the past four years. Francois is the Chair of the Township Council Administration Committee and successfully executed the nationwide search for the new Township Manager replacement. I also currently serve on the Youth Services Commission and Member of the Somerset County Action Program. My vision for the township is to stabilize taxes, expand economic development to increase commercial and industrial ratables that will reduce the tax burden on residential taxpayers, and provide more services and youth recreation programs. I am particularly proud of my work to spearhead the development of the Senior Community Center, creation of the Township's successful Business Advisory Council and spearhead the Teen Recreation Program. I have also served on the Planning Board, Rent Leveling Board, and Human Relations Committee.
