Congratulations to the City of Franklin on the great news that the city’s sex offender ordinance has been upheld in court, and that a convicted sex offender on release will now have to abide by Franklin law.
Congratulations go out to Franklin Mayor Tom Taylor, members of the Franklin Common Council, the City Attorney of Franklin, and the Franklin-based Citizens for a Safe Wisconsin that worked so diligently in drafting and adopting an ordinance that sustains a constitutional challenge.
I also commend and thank Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge John Franke for issuing the correct judgment in this case. It is very gratifying to represent Franklin, a community that cares passionately about the health and welfare of all children in Wisconsin, and expended amazing amounts of time to craft the ordinance that protects children and the greater community.
