By SARAH COYNE sarah@appenmedia.com MILTON, Ga. — The Milton Trails Advisory Committee met July 31 to discuss a future proposal to the City Council to modify a map in the Unified Development Code. Members of the official group work with city staff to improve connectivity and promote access to nature trails. As part of this effort, the committee is working with city engineers to modify the Milton Trails Blueprint, a document which shows existing and planned segments of the city’s path network. First created in 2017 with KimleyHorn consultants, the committee is now working to modify the Unified Development Code for the blueprint changes. In February, Milton looked to its residents for input on the proposed additions.
