FAQs • Milford, DE • CivicEngage

What should I NOT use this system for?: Issues threatening public safety or things needing immediate attention (like downed wires, tree limbs, or needles), should be reported directly to the Milford Police Non-Emergency Line at 302-422-8081. Things that require long-term planning, a larger discussion, a community process, or involve multiple departments or non-City entities should be directed to the appropriate department by phone call or email as these issues are not easily "fixable" in the same way a pothole, streetlight, etc. are.
