<p>The city of Franklin is hosting a public forum to discuss concerns raised with air quality in the city.</p>
<p>The forum will be at 6 p.m. Friday at Franklin Community High School, 2600 Cumberland Drive.</p>
<p>At the forum, officials from the city, state and water company will discuss their work over the years to monitor former manufacturing sites and possible contamination, and their next steps.</p>
<p>Having that public discussion is necessary after testing ordered by a nonprofit group found some high levels of volatile organic compounds in specific areas and residents raised concerns.</p>
<p>The city has also asked the state to do additional testing of air quality.</p>
<p>Those results will not yet be available at the meeting on Friday, and officials are considering having additional meetings when those results are available.</p>
