Committee approves stewardship lease for Milton Ballpark to local nonprofit, forwards to budget
The Property Management Committee approved a 10‑year stewardship lease (nominal $1 per year) to the Milton Ladies' Society for the county‑owned Milton Ballpark property, and the committee voted to forward the lease to the budget office as a precautionary step.

Lindsey Reed, treasurer of the Milton Ladies' Society, described the nonprofit's plan to restore the 1.25‑acre former ballpark in downtown Milton to a multiuse community space. Proposed improvements include removal of hazardous debris, replacement of the backstop with a commemorative, usable structure, a 5–6 foot walking path along the perimeter, low decorative lighting, a small pavilion and potentially a playground and historical marker in later phases.

The committee reviewed a standard nonprofit lease; commissioners noted the group has local support, including the district commissioner. The motion to approve the lease for presentation to budget passed by roll call. The committee asked staff to forward the approved lease to the budget office and to continue coordination with the nonprofit on any future capital or maintenance needs.
