Bill eliminates eminent domain for rec purposes in Milford

Victory for Property Rights in Milford!

A huge thank you to Milford City Council for working to restrict the use of eminent domain for recreational purposes — both inside and outside city limits.

This new charter language ensures that property owners are protected from having their land taken for parks, trails, or other recreational uses.

Thank you Councilman Jason James and the Council for working alongside legislators in the best interest of city residents.

“After pressure from local legislators who must approve any changes to a municipal charter, Milford City Council voted to restrict the use of eminent domain for recreational purposes, both inside and outside city limits.”
