The Town of Milford announced on May 15 that it is collaborating with community members to develop a plan aimed at improving its outdoor spaces and addressing flooding issues. The initiative will begin with the redesign of either Edwards (Pearl St) Park or Bancroft Park.

The project seeks to enhance public spaces while tackling recurring concerns related to local flooding. Town officials say that involving residents in the planning process is an important step toward creating parks that better serve the needs of the community.

As part of this effort, informational flyers are available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese to ensure broader participation from Milford’s diverse population. The town encourages all interested residents to review these materials and share their input as plans move forward.

No additional details about specific design proposals or timelines have been released at this time. Updates will be provided as more information becomes available.

The broader impact of this project may include improved recreational opportunities for residents and reduced risk from future flooding events. Community involvement is expected to play a key role in shaping final decisions.
