Re-elect Linda Stock

Milford City Clerk

City Clerk Linda Stock        

As City Clerk, I have used my 21 years of experience working for our city to improve customer service and the efficiency. I'm honored to be your City Clerk and I hope you will support me on election day, November 8th.

I've been able to successfully implement changes to reduce costs and improve service, including:

Records are now updated directly into the computer for greater accuracy and transparency

City ordinances are now online for easy access by citizens and companies

Email addresses are now collected to proactively notify citizens of upcoming deadlines, such as dog license renewals

Grants have been secured to underwrite many of the costs associated with these changes.
