Milford Pre-Town Meeting Forum Set For Tuesday

MILFORD, MA — Town Meeting members and the public are invited to attend a pre-Town Meeting forum in Milford on Tuesday night. During the meeting, city officials will review the 10 most asked-about items on the Warrant for the Oct. 28 meeting.

At the top of the list is a switch to electronic voting, which many towns already use (watch Natick's Town Meeting members use it here). But there plenty of other important items will be discussed — plus two bonus articles that may come up if time allows. Here's the full list:

1. Switching to electronic voting for the 2020 Town Meeting
2. Rezoning 426 and 434 East Main to a business park
3. A petition to the General Court for special legislation about the hiring of a police chief
4. Transferring 17 town parcels to the Conservation Commission
5. Upgrading the AV technology in upper Town Hall
6. The 2020 police personnel budget
7. Amending zoning for medical marijuana treatment centers
8. Funds from Sira Naturals being directed to the stabilization fund
9. Bids for the sale of the former Purchase Street School
10. Town employee salary and benefits
11. Residency requirement for Personnel Board members (time permitting)*
12. Vacation leave for employees (time permitting)*

The pre-Town Hall meeting happens at 7 p.m. on Oct. 22 in the upper Town Hall.
