This week on The Frame: the School Committee and City Council vote on a proposed contract to acquire school buses as efforts continue to bring drivers in-house, work begins on an expansion to Framingham’s Logan Express garage, and the city hosts its annual tree lighting ceremony in front of the Memorial Building. Plus: a look at the giant toy soldiers that adorn the community during the holidays—how they came about, and what goes into making this tradition a reality.

All of that on The Frame: Framingham News in Focus.
