The council’s decision to pursue a $500,000 grant from the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs was a key focus of the meeting. The funds would be used to conduct a comprehensive watershed and flood mitigation analysis, addressing infrastructure concerns. The application process received support from local assembly and Senate teams, highlighting its importance. The resolution passed unanimously.

In another notable move, the council adopted updated historic preservation guidelines. This resolution was part of an ongoing effort to refine the town’s historic preservation processes, following a recent ordinance update. The guidelines are intended to provide clear direction for maintaining the borough’s architectural heritage, a concern for the predominantly historical community.

The meeting also included a proclamation honoring Tara Lyn Ventola, who was recognized for her over 20 years of service to the borough. Her contributions, particularly in roles such as municipal clerk, were commended for their impact on the community and her dedication to public service.

Other resolutions passed included authorizing the redemption of tax title liens and appointing a volunteer as a research adviser to the Community Affairs and Public Relations Committee. The council also encouraged residents to participate in a town-wide survey.
