Summary

Milton planning staff said the city is pursuing funding to update a riverfront master plan covering Carpenters Park through South Milton and to the village of Baghdad; staff also said a courthouse request-for-proposals remains in process but has not yet been released.

Milton planning staff told the Historic Preservation Board that the city is seeking funding to update its riverfront master plan and that the process currently is at the staff/idea stage.

Tim, planning department staff, said the master plan update would cover future growth from Carpenters Park along the riverfront through downtown and South Milton to the village of Baghdad and that the city is working with the Community Investment Board (CIB) on ideas. "We don't have any funding for updating plan or anything like that at this point," Tim said, adding that staff will return with proposals if funding is secured.

Board members also asked about an earlier-discussed request for proposals related to the courthouse; Tim said the RFP has not yet been released and that the matter remains in the city's administrative process.

The update was informational; no board action was taken.
