The city will bond some $15 million, with proposed projects ranging from roadwork, building maintenance, new vehicles and esports arenas in both high schools. In all, the aldermen approved $2.2 million for design and construction of sanitary sewers and wastewater facilities; $7.7 million for various public improvements, and $4.95 million for the school district. The school money will cover $1.65 million for partial replacement of the Orchard Hills Elementary School roof and $2.2 million in various maintenance work at the schools. Milford’s esports has grown from a club to a full-fledged CIAC-sanctioned sport, “serving a unique population of students who might not be interested in traditional high school sports but thrive in this competitive environment,” Glennon said. The $7.7 million for city bonding will cover the purchase of four sanitation collection trucks ($1.98 million), a new fire truck ($1.98 million), $1.1 million for various building maintenance work and $1.1 million for completing the fiberoptic conversion project.
