Milford City Planning and Zoning Board adjourns March 3 meeting for lack of quorum; 258th Avenue item continued to March 17

The Milford City Planning and Zoning Board adjourned its March 3, 2026 meeting after board members determined they did not have a quorum and could not conduct agenda business. Bob, a board member who spoke at the opening of the meeting, said the board had only five members present while seven are required to transact business and that the meeting would be adjourned.

Why it matters: With no quorum the board could not hold public hearings, vote on pending applications or take other formal actions. That interrupted consideration of items scheduled for public hearing; at least one application was formally continued and others were left without new dates.

What was said: "We do not have a quorum," Bob said when he announced the attendance shortfall. He proposed adjourning without proceeding to a roll call or the pledge of allegiance because the board could not legally act. When asked if that was correct, David, identified in the meeting as a staff member, replied, "That's correct."

Continuances and next steps: Bob put on the public record that at least one matter involving 258th Avenue was continued to March 17. He said the date for another matter that had been on the agenda for public hearing was not available on the record. The meeting concluded with brief thanks to attendees; no votes or other formal actions were taken.

Context and procedure: The meeting opening included an announcement that Mr. Sadi was running the meeting and that Mr. Kush was not present. Board members and staff followed the usual practice of recording continuances when a quorum is not present so that applicants and the public have an official notice of the next hearing date.

The board did not conduct any agenda business on March 3 and provided no further schedule changes for the items left off the record. The 258th Avenue item is scheduled to be heard on March 17, per the continuance noted at the meeting.
