The Town of Milton Planners and Traffic Engineers want to continue an outdated policy of literally stealing your property that you bought, and pay taxes on. If you are planning applying to the town for any development or renovations, they want to make
you pay for the survey and lawyers fees to
give the Town your property!
These laws are not for any specific plans, but are sweeping generalizations across most of established Milton in the name of "future road-widening". These are based on antiquated traffic engineering standards from the 1980's. If you own a corner lot, they want to take a "Daylight Triangle" off of your corner too!
The
Town Planner's Report is recommending that council continue this practice. And in an email on 2018-03-28, Commissioner of Engineering Paul Cripps wrote to me:
