Traffic and parking procedures described at the meeting note that the police department’s traffic safety officer reviews disabled parking applications and forwards recommendations to the Traffic & Parking subcommittee for final consideration. The council heard that a disabled parking space had previously existed on the same block at 317 Rambo Street but was removed when the former applicant moved out of the borough. The packet and council discussion described the block as heavily parked and on a hill, factors the council cited in support of granting the new space.

Council members said the resolution is intended to give local legislators support and credibility when advocating for funding in Harrisburg; the transcript records a council member thanking the president for adding the late submission to the agenda and noting that State Representative Tim Briggs and Senator Cappelletti have expressed support for SEPTA funding.

Council discussion tied the item to the borough’s goals of walkability and transit access, with members noting that reliable public transit helps residents who commute to the city and can reduce household car dependence.

The motion to adopt the resolution was moved and seconded on the record and carried with no recorded opposition.

Council members said the county contract—standardly offered as a multi‑year engagement—has supported the borough’s comprehensive planning and recent zoning revisions. Council discussion noted the current contract work focused on finalizing zoning revisions and that staff and county planners are preparing an update to the subdivision and land‑development ordinance as well as a parking and land‑use study.

A council member said the planning assistance “has been really useful” and that the relationship has “bared some fruit,” noting ideas raised in commission meetings and ongoing or planned projects around the borough.

The contract was described in the meeting as a three‑year standard for county planning assistance and as the borough’s third agreement of this type; council members said earlier contract work included the comprehensive plan and zoning revisions. The motion to execute the contract was moved and seconded on the record, and the council recorded no opposition when the item was carried.

Council members present who participated in the discussion included Diane Gundrum, Kyle Schenck, Tommy Heil and others who serve on or consult with the borough’s planning committee; the transcript records support for continuing the county planning assistance for zoning, subdivision and parking work.","The council voted to execute a multi‑year planning services contract with the Montgomery County Planning Commission to continue zoning and land‑use work, including an upcoming subdivision and parking study.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6185651,"Bridgeport council approves hire and administers oath to patrol officer Noah Clemons",191,103000,294000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5081408-2f688712f7293813bd5373a6d7de5250&start=103&end=294","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5081408-2f688712f7293813bd5373a6d7de5250/thumbnail_103000.jpg","/articles/6185651/Bridgeport/Montgomery-County/Pennsylvania/Bridgeport-council-approves-hire-and-administers-oath-to-patrol-officer-Noah-Clemons","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6185651-ec1be8f9eb7b7014252edbbe2c7373f7/orig.mp4?Expires=1771204562&Signature=NKeHvmQelbb0bHYK9yYsy0IJujYUB0m-3viI9g81GXRar9xv9gud6bpZO2JLt4naFutqnaBtqwyVcDupkyy4o1KeHU2E3O-T12EieA0irvejrpSqsnUTY0n7bvYl~z2JUxx0G~hV-eLhvzE9nIkmoLv6ykLH-jYZD2VvUiUhjgkooLLFpAdXwooBQ9bP4MCCsptTvA9NcYXeGSNJpaPYomPw~HVi9LQvkGbJPGwDLsu2~lKfysW-cCu6J3yikpcFm~CTT-sWvt1Gfap1Oyg3RdbDz0wT-XboUHtInzNn3wCNHj3zv40riipDwjmWFwp3UDoO~nWiu21IrwUR1bd7aw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Bridgeport Borough Council voted June 24 to hire Noah Clemons as a full‑time patrol officer effective June 27, 2025, and Clemons took the oath of office at the meeting.

The hire, introduced for council consideration at the start of the business portion of the meeting, passed with no recorded opposition. Clemons will be assigned to the patrol division of the Bridgeport Police Department.

Chief (unnamed in transcript) told the council that Clemons is “25 years of age,” graduated from the Montgomery County Police Academy in February, earned a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from Penn State in 2022 and an associate of science from Montgomery County Community College. The chief said Clemons “received accommodation from Norristown PD for response related to a shooting investigation in February” and received “the accommodation of heroism for saving a woman at the Bridgeport Suites Fire on 02/22/2025.”

At the meeting Clemons repeated the oath of office. His words included: “I, Noah Clemons, do solemnly swear that I will support, obey, and defend the Constitution of The United States and the Constitution of this Commonwealth, and that I will discharge the duties of my office with fidelity.”

Council members offered congratulations during the vote and when the oath was administered. The hiring item was presented during the formal agenda and recorded as approved; the transcript shows no council member opposing the motion.

The council did not specify in the meeting record which council member moved or seconded the motion beyond the verbal exchanges captured on the record, and the minutes should be checked for the formal mover/second names and the numeric vote tally.","Bridgeport Borough Council voted to hire Noah Clemons as a full‑time patrol officer effective June 27, 2025, and administered his oath of office during the June 24 meeting.","actionData","errors"]
