Santa Rosa's Press Gazette

Concerns about potential impacts to downtown buildings have in the past drawn resistance from some Milton residents and city leaders over the widening of Hwy. 90 through historic downtown Milton.

Santa Rosa County Commissioners approve continuing discussions on bringing much needed traffic relief to Highway 90.

Santa Rosa County officials say progress on a long-discussed effort to widen U.S. Highway 90 could help accelerate the project, but the proposal continues to raise questions about traffic congestion through Milton’s historic downtown and the potential impact on older buildings along the corridor.

Milton launches Yard of the Season recognition program

Shoutout to unnamed very caring individuals

My husband and I were waiting outside a local restaurant to meet friends for dinner. We observed a woman holding the arm of a man with a cane. He was having great difficulty stepping down from the curb to get to his vehicle. It appeared that he might have been recovering from a stroke. My husband walked over to assist them. The three were quickly joined by other adults, young and old. After awhile, the group was able, with care and patience, to help him step off the curb and to his vehicle.
