Woodbridge Township Council Approves Fish Waste Disposal Ordinance

In a recent Woodbridge Township Council meeting, an ordinance amending health regulations regarding the disposal of fish waste was adopted. Besides this environmental action, the council also advanced local infrastructure projects, such as the acceptance of a deed of easement for drainage purposes on Pitman Avenue in Fords, and addressed community concerns related to the forthcoming opening of a Tiki bar.

The approved health ordinance targets the handling of fish waste. The public hearing on the matter saw no comments from attendees, and the council proceeded with unanimous consent.

The council also moved forward with an infrastructure initiative to improve drainage on Pitman Avenue. A member of the public raised an inquiry about the proximity of the drainage project to Herz Creek, receiving assurance from the administration that necessary approvals were in place. The ordinance for this project was adopted without opposition.

A notable topic of community interest discussed at the meeting was the upcoming Tiki bar opening. A citizen expressed excitement about the new establishment, slated to open in July, but also voiced concerns regarding parking and environmental approvals. In response, the council clarified that the Tiki bar had received all necessary environmental clearances, and the administration would not manage its operations. Concerns regarding parking and the impact on local neighborhoods were acknowledged, with the administration noting that traffic flow would be managed effectively.

The meeting also included routine procedural matters, such as the approval of first reading ordinances D and F, slated for public hearing on July 23, 2024, and the unanimous consent approval of resolutions 1 through 34.
