The centennial celebration was a key highlight, with various speakers paying homage to the borough’s history. The assembly included numerous former mayors, council members, and community figures who shared their experiences and contributions to Bellmawr. A noteworthy moment came when an assembly member presented a ceremonial resolution from the New Jersey State Senate and the General Assembly, commemorating the borough’s centennial. The resolution was a joint acknowledgment of Bellmawr’s incorporation and its importance to the region. The event was also marked with musical performances and acknowledgments of past community leaders, emphasizing the borough’s tradition of civic involvement.

Beyond the celebrations, the council introduced an ordinance to establish a new chapter on lead-based paint in Bellmawr’s municipal code. This legislative move aims to enhance the borough’s efforts in ensuring safe living environments for its residents by addressing potential lead hazards.

Other discussions during the meeting included updates on community projects, such as the success of the recent business alliance meeting and upcoming community events. The council encouraged local businesses to participate in future events.
