Had a great time catching up with U.S. Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester and Town Manager Kristy Rogers over lunch at Lago Asian Cuisine & Sushi! We talked about supporting local small businesses, housing affordability, federal funding opportunities, and how Milton can keep building a strong, resilient community for the future.

A huge thank you to Senator Blunt Rochester for her partnership and advocacy for our town, and to Preston Russell and the team at Lago for hosting us. Milton’s future is bright! 🌟
