Milford City Council is urging residents to vote on a referendum regarding the city’s water infrastructure upgrades, which are set to cost $8.5 million. The proposed upgrades include a new water tower, a drinking water supply well, and a treatment facility, with the cost to be covered through water use and impact fees on developers, rather than through raised taxes or utility rates. The council recently held a public hearing on the issue, which saw no resident comments, indicating general approval for the project. Mayor Todd Culotta emphasized the importance of these upgrades for the city’s future prospects, including the growth of a new business park. City staff recommended advancing the bond referendum at a recent meeting, with Culotta expressing hopes that it will help spur job creation and economic growth in Milford. Residents will have the opportunity to vote on the bond issuance in a special election on April 26.
