City of Franklin Celebrates New Stop Sign

The city of Franklin is abuzz thanks to the installation of a new stop sign. According to sources, residents and city officials are overjoyed after a 5-year wait has finally come to an end.

"We have been trying to raise the funds necessary to purchase the new sign," states the Mayor of Franklin. "Our city doesn't have a mayor, so getting this stop sign installed took a lot of work on my end considering I don't actually exist."

The back alley for the stop sign has not been used in several years because it is blocked off. The installation of the new sign is just the first step in the process of reopening the dead end.

"We really like that road for the positive reasons it exists," states Matilda Prick. "We also hate it for the negative aspects of its existence, which really are the only traits it carries."

Franklin has come close 30 times to raising the money it needs for the sign. Every time, they wound up loaning it out to Oil City before they could make the purchase. Now, they can finally say that their money has been spent on things to better their town.
