Village Lots and Township Acreage
Milford is really two different building environments under one name: the incorporated Village of Milford with its smaller in-town lots, and the surrounding Milford Township where properties stretch out into real acreage. CNO Pole Barns got its start in 1970 and is locally owned today by Zosim Serban, who works Milford-area jobs alongside one of the company's 3 crews instead of just signing off on them from a distance.
What We Build on Each Side of Milford
Inside the village, most calls are for a detached garage, a workshop, or a storage building that fits a smaller residential lot without crowding it. Out in the township, where lots run bigger, pole barns, horse barns, and multipurpose agricultural buildings are just as common. Either way, the building gets designed around your actual property, not a catalog floor plan.
Two Building Departments, One Paperwork Trail
Which building department reviews your permit depends on whether your property sits inside the Village of Milford limits or out in the surrounding township. The village runs its own Building and Zoning Department, and the township has a separate Building Department that handles the outlying area. We figure out which one applies to your property before we ever submit paperwork, so you are not stuck sorting that out yourself.
