The Woodbridge Township Council meeting on February 20, 2024, highlighted several key community-focused discussions, including commendations for snow removal efforts and important infrastructure resolutions.
Mayor McCormick opened the meeting by praising George Brew and his team for their exceptional snow removal during a recent storm. Despite the unexpected accumulation of 8 to 9 inches of snow, residents awoke to clear streets, allowing for smooth travel and minimal disruption. The Mayor humorously recounted how he initially underestimated the snowfall while preparing for a live interview, only to find that the streets were already cleared. This efficient response not only ensured safety but also showcased the effectiveness of the Department of Public Works, much to the delight of residents who could go about their day without the hassle of snow-covered roads.
In addition to the snow removal discussion, the council addressed several important resolutions. Among them was the acceptance of Matty Court in Colonia as a public street, which is expected to enhance accessibility for residents. The council also discussed the release of a surety bond for a property on Wood Avenue, indicating progress in local development projects. Furthermore, a resolution for the replacement of the Cutter Stout Road bridge was introduced, signaling ongoing efforts to improve infrastructure and ensure safe transportation routes for the community.
These discussions reflect the council's commitment to maintaining and improving the quality of life in Woodbridge Township. As the council continues to address both immediate concerns, like snow removal, and long-term infrastructure needs, residents can expect ongoing enhancements to their community.
