Here are the top 3 stories today in Franklin:

1. February has been proclaimed Cholangiocarcinoma Awareness Month by Williamson County Mayor Rogers Anderson. Cholangiocarcinoma, also known as bile duct cancer, is a rare form of cancer that is often misdiagnosed due to symptoms presenting only in late stages. Due to the rarity, most general practitioners do not recognize the cancer at first sight, and the Mayor hopes to bring awareness to this issue. (williamsonherald.com)
2. Franklin will be hosting a major high school wrestling tournament this weekend, with multiple schools from across the county competing. More than two dozen schools will have matches throughout the day tomorrow at Franklin High School, beginning in the early morning. This is the third consecutive season for the Franklin Admiral Invitationaltournament, revived by Admirals head coach Andrew Tomlinson. (williamsonherald.com)
3. Emissions testing for Williamson County residents will no longer be a requirement for license plate renewal, starting today, Jan. 14. The option to renew your plates will still be available either in person, by mail, online, or at kiosks across Williamson County. (WSMV)
