Public Notice
Notice is hereby given that the Milford Borough Council will conduct a Public Hearing, and thereafter may vote upon and potentially enact an Ordinance regulating Special Events (which shall be codified as Chapter 88 of the Milford Borough Code). If passed, the Ordinance shall amend current Chapter 88 to change the definition of "Special Event" to expand the types of organizations which may sponsor such an event, and defining a "Special Event" as follows:
"A promotional, fundraising, competitive, recreational, or other temporary event, which is held only periodically, such that it does not constitute the regular activities of an individual or organization (i.e., it does not constitute a separate zoning "use" requiring a separate zoning permit or approval nor is it considered a customary accessory use). Examples of special events include, but are not limited to, a parade, concert, show, carnival, circus, fair, race, fundraiser, or "fun day". Events may be organized by an individual, business, or other entity having a residence (in the case of an individual) or physical office within Milford Borough, or by any other individual, business, or other entity whose event is sponsored by a nonprofit corporation having a physical office in Milford Borough or which directly serves or otherwise benefits the Borough community (as determined by the Borough Council in its reasonable discretion)."
The proposed Ordinance is available for inspection at the Milford Borough Office, 500 Broad Street, Milford. The Hearing shall take place on October 20, 2025 at 7:00 p.m. at the Milford Borough Hall, 109 Catharine Street, Milford, Pennsylvania.
