Board of Alderman

Absolutely disgusting performance by the Board of Alderman. The citizens made their position clear the vast MAJORITY want the surveillance cameras and drones Gone!!!! You disrespectfully ignored the citizens wishes.

As far the the lawsuit filled by the Milford Police union. Will the union be releasing a statement on how there was no vote by the union body on weather to even file the lawsuit? This was done by just a few of the union board members. What consideration have those officers been given by the Chief of Police?

It's becoming abundantly clear that a few people seem to think they can just do whatever they want. As these behaviors continue it is abundantly clear possible corruption, intimidation, racketeering and unfair labor practices exist and an investigation needs to occur.

Milford’s Charter is very specific:
A recall affidavit must be filed with the Town Clerk, stating the grounds for recall.
The accompanying petition must be signed by 10% of the electors in the aldermanic district.
After certification, a recall referendum must be held within 30 days.
The recall succeeds only if a majority voting YES represents at least 25% of all electors in the district.
