Task force began in 2011 “to regulate urban blight”

The main focus of the Milford Neighborhood Task Force is to identify areas with unregistered vehicles, excessive garbage\junk, illegal or overcrowding apartments, blighted structures or anything that violates local\state\federal health\safety\zoning codes.

According to the town website, the task force was commissioned by the Milford Select Board in 2011, coinciding with Article 31 (Nuisance By-Law) of the Milford By-Laws which was designed “to regulate urban blight.” The full bylaw can be found at bit.ly/MilfordMaTownBylaws (page 68). 

The task force is a collaboration between the Town Administrator, Milford Police Department, Milford Fire Department, Health Department, Assessor’s Office, and the Building Commissioner.
