About the MilfordECC

What is the Milford ECC?

The Milford Environmental Concerns Coalition (ECC) acts as a series of co-ordinated committees which address specific areas of concern in our city ie: open spaces, recycling, waterways, etc.

Statement of Purpose

The Environmental Concerns Coalition (ECC) is the product of citizen involvement in the planning of Milford’s 1990 Earth Day activities, and was formed to focus effort on local environmental issues. In this regard the ECD is a vehicle for citizen action to address the major themes of the present day environmental movement in this country, captured in the slogans “pollution prevention, not control” and “think globally, act locally”.

ECC’s overall objective is to research environmental issues that affect Milford and its residents and educate the public about its findings. As an ad hoc committee of the Mayor’s office, the ECC keeps him informed of its agendas and progress on a regular basis and, whenever possible, coordinates its activities with those of other agencies of the city government. The ECC also makes proposals to the Mayor’s office concerning executive or legislative initiatives which it believes are in the best interests of the
City of Milford.

Ann Berman, Chairman

"[Ann] Berman has a hand in more environmental issues than can be summed up in one paragraph. Milford environmentalists describe her as tenacious and determined, eager to research environmental laws and applications, and never afraid to promote efforts that might seem difficult."
