Search Begins for New Town Administrator

Milford Selectmen on Monday approved a process to search for a replacement for retiring Town Administrator Louis Celozzi.

Celozzi last month announced his plans to retire. He will step down at the end of March, and selectmen said Monday they hope to have his successor in place for at least a few weeks prior to Celozzi's departure. Initially, the education component was listed as "Basic Knowledge," …

Find an equivalent to this job in the private sector, maybe 60k a year, how about giving the taxpayer a little break and let them work their way to 90k instead of starting at that.   more ›
