The proclamation of June as Pride Month was a key moment in the meeting, underscoring Voorhees Township’s dedication to inclusivity. The declaration not only commemorates the historic Stonewall uprising but also emphasizes the township’s respect for the rights of individuals to live without fear of discrimination. This step aligns with the broader national recognition of Pride Month and encourages local residents to stand in solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community.

The meeting also covered several financial measures, including the approval of multiple bond ordinances aimed at improving township infrastructure. These included a $3,650,000 bond for road improvements and a $1,515,000 bond for sewer utility system upgrades. Each ordinance was opened to public comment, though no comments were made. The council approved the measures following a roll call vote.

Another notable agenda item was the annual MS City to Shore bike ride, which marks its 45th anniversary this year. This event, second only in size nationally, is a crucial fundraiser for multiple sclerosis research. A representative highlighted the importance of the ride, especially given the loss of federal funding for MS research in 2025. The ride is scheduled for September 27-28, and the township will continue its tradition of supporting the event by coordinating with local police for safety and ensuring minimal disruption to residents.
