Administrator Bose told the council that Resolutions 103 and 104 authorize Capital Alternatives to prepare and submit the municipal aid application for the remaining section of Shadyside Road (Woodland to Darlington). He noted that last year the borough obtained a municipal aid grant for Section 1 (West Oak to Woodland) in the amount of $190,050.

Resolution 105 authorizes the borough to issue estimated third-quarter tax bills ahead of county certification; the third-quarter bills are due Aug. 1. Bose explained that state law requires property tax bills be issued at least 30 days before they are due and that the county certification process had not been completed; the borough will issue estimated bills in late June and the final certified rate will be reflected in the fourth-quarter billings.

The consent block also included approval of a block party request from Marissa Davis for Aug. 9, 2025, 3 p.m.–10 p.m. All consent resolutions were passed in the meeting's consent block by roll call.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Borough of Ramsey Mayor and Council Meeting May 28, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","In a consent block, the council authorized preparation and submission of a NJDOT municipal aid grant application for Shadyside Road Section 2, approved estimated third-quarter tax bills and granted a block party request.","taxTitle","Ramsey, Bergen County, New Jersey","taxId",70488,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6222826,"Ramsey updates water infrastructure plans: PFAS treatment, lead-line replacements and financing steps discussed",83,2213000,2296000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3579441-7c1933323cf9ec254db221120c6048e8&start=2213&end=2296","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3579441-7c1933323cf9ec254db221120c6048e8/thumbnail_2213000.jpg","/articles/6222826/Ramsey/Bergen-County/New-Jersey/Ramsey-updates-water-infrastructure-plans-PFAS-treatment-lead-line-replacements-and-financing-steps-discussed","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6222826-ded3efa1564e5146f3c47186e8cf4390/orig.mp4?Expires=1771048513&Signature=EV5vwj6mGx3D4AUiJKDpDAmYIy3BP4xslIN3LgdUuRzYlpe7z~mY4VBuH6rdtb-sBeluh1ZjymNyrbPWTDrn8q5rvmLPxzzijFmBL9-NnqhBoQaitLf48FPebJYaN19JBfhHQ4w3wobJ4DmCGScurqmDRPQE58obDGlDjBrKXhyGvRCihYdTzSXKTVL~zrX5FYUmmj4JLzcp5Ax5nNooFMk36~83ivbev6Zy6pWPRN0HfvZf5pkbuxJMSEPL5U1UzMZSeIIbsOgcAXgJm1F~9S1ww0FVV1zr9zDc-1xRSCJTMlph69mMsCeWa03tRYWaS0aQMTcCK~CPnsSZZcmprQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Officials at the May 20 Ramsey Mayor and Council meeting updated the public on work to address PFAS in drinking water, the state-mandated lead service line replacement program, and related financing steps.

Councilwoman Cusick, reporting for utilities and public works, said H2M — the borough's architecture and engineering firm — \"is working with the Ramsey Water Department regarding treatment approaches\" for PFAS at the borough's wells and treatment facilities. She said Arrow Road and other well projects (Darlington, Brookfield, North Central and Spring Street) were submitted to the New Jersey Infrastructure Bank for funding; Arrow Road was submitted in August 2024 and the others in February 2025. The iBank was still reviewing environmental planning documents as of the May 20 meeting.

On lead service lines, Cusick said the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's replacement legislation requires that \"all lead service lines served by the water system be replaced by the year 2031.\" The borough's public works owns the service line from the main to the curb stop; property owners own the line from the curb stop into the building. The borough is preparing a bond ordinance that will include Board of Public Works funding for the next phase of mandated lead replacements, Snyder Avenue water-main upgrades, PFAS design work, and the PFAS treatment project to be bid later in the year. Finch Park court resurfacing and lighting and an initial phase of an upgrade to the emergency communications network and radios were also noted as borough projects to be included in upcoming bond ordinances, with roughly 50% of the Finch Park funding expected to be offset by previously obtained open-space grants.

Cusick also said the borough's 2025 Consumer Confidence Report is being completed; a CCR postcard will be mailed in June and the full report will be available on the Ramsey website starting July 1. Separately, Councilman Kilman reported that the Ramsey Emergency Services Complex project remains under further review; the plan and bid package must be submitted to the state Office of the Controller for review before the work may be bid, and there were no estimated dates for those steps.

No formal council action to award contracts or to adopt the pending bond ordinance was taken at the May 20 meeting; staff were reporting status and preparing applications and draft ordinances for future council consideration.","Council members and staff reported progress on PFAS treatment planning, lead service line replacement compliance and funding steps; submissions to the New Jersey Infrastructure Bank are under review and a bond ordinance for project funding is planned.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":46,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6222831,"Ramsey introduces ordinance changing tennis and pickleball hours, adds resident-only time",356,3152000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3579441-7c1933323cf9ec254db221120c6048e8&start=2796&end=3152","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3579441-7c1933323cf9ec254db221120c6048e8/thumbnail_2796000.jpg","/articles/6222831/Ramsey/Bergen-County/New-Jersey/Ramsey-introduces-ordinance-changing-tennis-and-pickleball-hours-adds-resident-only-time","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6222831-d9a80071d1522db5e9e0656fe1c2d309/orig.mp4?Expires=1771048513&Signature=PiAVKsfALd5Dxr-T7fdIENfToLtnXf1f0LGpDudJBQzy1KYlpmvmm6mmri5knGYW7Q3TtIRtEcM-pTpk4RGdIPT3QQsFAGibIV1FKFSPqYzQ78dw5kjz20S4~tiqgwRU~igTrNS0YFdGeBdsotFOpupMeuGYmrbXwd5UEO9f2WEMoiRNTWx70F0C5kZm82yNvM7qJXJJN07PjgYv0BkbCNI-cSi8kROalwsUTa9FLAgmaKiilJlnJlSS~LNHa33rZqGr4T2cWEmEBzNYc8uYOk~6ZV1mNJQR9tL6391V75mKciL0eqjKXPjMGPlslSYo-d4B3uHmMaeNbI4kbl3yog__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Borough of Ramsey introduced Ordinance 13-2025 on first reading May 20 to amend local rules for tennis and pickleball courts and to add good-neighbor provisions aimed at limiting noise and offensive behavior.

Administrator Bose summarized the proposed changes, saying the ordinance would \"modify the hours of play on the East Oak Street Courts\" and set distinct daily hours and resident-only time slots. Under the proposal, East Oak Street courts hours would change from the current 8 a.m.–9 p.m. daily to: Monday–Wednesday 8 a.m.–8 p.m.; Thursday–Friday 8 a.m.–7 p.m.; Saturday 9 a.m.–6 p.m.; Sunday 9 a.m.–4 p.m. Ramsey-resident exclusive use times would be Wednesday and Friday 4 p.m.–6 p.m. and Saturday–Sunday 9 a.m.–11 a.m.

For the Finch Park pickleball courts, the ordinance would change hours from 8 a.m.–9 p.m. daily to 8 a.m.–8 p.m. daily. Resident-exclusive times for Finch Park would be Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 9 a.m.–10:30 a.m. and 4 p.m.–6 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday 8 a.m.–10 a.m. and 2 p.m.–4 p.m. The draft also contains \"good neighbor\" provisions prohibiting excessive noise, offensive behavior and amplified music.

Councilwoman Cusick moved the introduction; the ordinance was approved on first reading by roll call and scheduled for final consideration at a June meeting. The borough clerk was directed to publish the ordinance and notice of the public hearing for final passage, as required by law.

Full text and the official meeting notice will appear with the published ordinance; the council will consider final adoption at the next regular meeting date listed in the published notice.","The council introduced Ordinance 13-2025 to revise hours and resident-exclusive time slots at East Oak Street and Finch Park courts and add 'good neighbor' provisions; final passage will be considered at a June meeting.",{"_33":99,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":100,"_41":101,"_43":102,"_45":103,"_47":104,"_49":105,"_51":106,"_53":107,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":108,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":109,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6222836,"Ramsey adopts summer parking ban near Darlington Park",114,1612000,1726000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3579441-7c1933323cf9ec254db221120c6048e8&start=1612&end=1726","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3579441-7c1933323cf9ec254db221120c6048e8/thumbnail_1612000.jpg","/articles/6222836/Ramsey/Bergen-County/New-Jersey/Ramsey-adopts-summer-parking-ban-near-Darlington-Park","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6222836-fff476b7802773e8c34dd80bf9850ab8/orig.mp4?Expires=1771048513&Signature=SZi9iSy4hPD4u~KvdjM47396n0PxuA7i0FgxUFuBUtSoWkV6UwP9vcqrtSjTsVLWQ1pPA7JUxsMv3bwzl7SAnp-BDVgYz1ZEl12nL8H76FiJ79B4-NuzU4-YYcF49Djo34Kkz1v8VifjMPNHdjQ2JQtRsa2IMpht-rakh0tOzAunEP0ka0DJiIKbuyLIjHdwCjgCK2rgtpvF~7UUrYeeSD6rLKlXsii99rEEbJThdUM-NxMlsoK-cMMO83~M9CI8YlHp5EDUIsg7-bhYnx8yI1qNf8v5Vhs2xXFQJ3McTf0byILucuAw9xMd6PzFJRQSziOx~nztySjdM8tnr53p2A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Borough of Ramsey on May 20 adopted Ordinance 11-2025, which prohibits street parking near Darlington Park from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. between May 15 and Sept. 15.

Councilwoman Cusick, presenting the ordinance at the advertised public hearing, said, \"This ordinance prohibits street parking, from 8AM to 6PM from May 15 through September 15 in 3 areas\" and then identified the affected streets. The ordinance passed final reading by roll call vote with the council voting in favor during the May 20 meeting.

The borough said the restriction targets congestion caused in recent years by park visitors who were parking on nearby residential streets. The three specific areas covered by the ordinance are Shadyside Road from Darlington Avenue to Drum Court, Drum Court, and Darlington Avenue from Ridge Road to Alita Place. Council members gave residents the opportunity to comment during the public hearing; the council heard no public remarks on the measure before closing the hearing and voting.

The borough clerk was directed to publish the ordinance title and adoption notice in an official newspaper as required by law.

Speakers who discussed this item identified themselves in the meeting record; the council approved the ordinance after the advertised public hearing and closed the hearing with no public testimony.

The ordinance changes a local traffic regulation (Chapter 7, Section 7-14 of the borough code) to restrict on-street parking during the summer park season. Implementation will be handled by borough staff and sign installation; the meeting record did not include a timeline for signage or enforcement.","The Ramsey Mayor and Council adopted Ordinance 11-2025 to prohibit street parking near Darlington Park during the summer park season after a public hearing with no public comment.","actionData","errors"]
