Milford Studies Fiscal Plan, Ordinance For Annexation

MILFORD -ÊWorking toward the eventual annexation of five parcels of property into the town of Milford, town attorney Jay Rigdon presented the council Monday with drafts of a fiscal plan and ordinance. While minor details need to be filled in on the fiscal plan, Rigdon said the fiscal plan and ordinance need to be prepared as the first steps of the annexation.The fiscal plan states what services the town currently offers to its residents, when the new residents in the annexation area will get the services and what expenses will be involved in providing those services. The fiscal plan will have to be adopted at the same time the ordinance for the annexation is presented.A hearing would then be held at least 60 days after the ordinance is presented.After the hearing, the council can give their final approval of the ordinance at least 30 days but no more than 60 days afterward. Remonstrators then would have 90 days, Rigdon said.
