Panel okays theater rehab

Milford Theater owner Joseph Farruggio is pictured reviewing material samples with Borough Architectural Review Board member, Architect Vlad Potiyevsky. Following a two-hour review of issues from Potiyevsky’s inspection of the historic theater, the board on Monday approved a resolution endorsing Farruggio’s rehabilitation plans. Farruggio said he hoped to complete the estimated $10,000 project this year. The rehab was in response to a violation of the historic district ordinance against the theater owner, charging “demolition by neglect.” (Photo by David Hulse)
