1. Large Affordable Housing Proposal Under Consideration In Milford (patch.com) — Milford residents may soon see a 53‑unit affordable housing complex proposed for 34 Buick Avenue, now before the city’s Planning and Zoning Board. City staff say the application is currently defective and incomplete under Connecticut’s 8-30g law, so the developer has been told what must be fixed before it can move forward.    

2. Recent Obituaries From Milford: Renner, Wellington, Cassola (patch.com) — Milford is remembering several residents whose lives touched local families, workplaces, and community groups. Recent obituaries honor people who worked in area industries, served in the military, and contributed to Milford organizations, with links provided for those wishing to read fuller tributes.    

3. Milford Arrest Log, May 11-18, 2026 (patch.com) — Recent arrests by Milford police between May 11 and 18 include charges tied to a restraining order violation, damage to City Hall flags, road-rage altercations near Pond Point Avenue, and a DUI crash on Buckingham Avenue. Several non-Milford residents were also charged in incidents at local businesses and parking lots, with all cases headed to upcoming court dates.    

4. Info Released On Milford Farmers Market For 2026 Season (patch.com) — Milford’s Downtown Farmers Market returns to Wasson Field on Saturday, June 6, running weekly through October 17 with a short break on June 20 and August 15. Shoppers can browse Connecticut-grown produce, meats, and more than 50 artisan vendors, plus children can join the Piglet’s Club for hands-on lessons about healthy eating and agriculture.    

5. Milford could begin building esports arenas at high school next summer as plans take shape (ctpost.com) — Milford Public Schools are moving ahead with plans for dedicated esports arenas at Jonathan Law and Foran high schools, backed by a $1.1 million local bond and pending state reimbursement. Educational specifications are now approved, designs are in progress, and if the state signs off, construction could start in summer 2027, creating flexible spaces for gaming, design, media, and potential tournament revenue.
