Guess Who's Back? New Milford Economic Corp. Revs Up

NEW MILFORD, CT --- The New Milford Economic Corp., the non-profit advocacy group formed about 15 years ago under Mayor Patricia Murphy and dormant for two years under David Gronbach’s mayoralty, is back in business. The organization encourages business and industry growth in the town.

In their first meeting under the current administration on Thursday morning, the group cited rejuvenation of the facade improvement and microloan programs as the low-hanging fruit on their immediate agenda. The first enables local businesses to receive a loan of up to $5,000 to improve their storefront, and the second helps startup companies cover a variety of expenses.
