Milton joined Legends 1063’s “Ozarks Now” program and talked about several topics.
Milton recounted the accident in July of 2025 that has since confined him to a mobility chair but that continue therapy has allowed him to regain some mobility and occasional stand.
Milton also discussed part of his recovery process has been staying business with his city duties and points to his first on-site public appearance, the dedication of the new Branson Public Safety Building, as one of the major accomplishments during his three-terms as mayor.
The mayor also talked about the past several months and the challenges of working with a new board with the majority of members having some different ideas to move the city forward. Milton says that has forced the city to slow down and reevaluate some projects, which he says is not necessarily a bad thing.
Milton says one of the major discussions now is the possible combining of the Convention Center expansion with a proposed new Sports Facility. Milton states that no one on the board has disagreement on the need for convention center expansion and facilities to host sporting events, but he personally has reservations on whether that can be combined into one facility.
