Assembly introduces ordinance to accept state funds for Clear Fire Road repairs, then postpones action
Summary
Ordinance 25-09 to accept state funding for the Clear Fire Road repair project was introduced and received a roll-call introduction vote, but assembly members then moved to postpone formal action to the next meeting.
The assembly introduced ordinance 25‑09, which would accept state funds for the Clear Fire Road repair project, and later voted to postpone formal adoption until the next meeting.
What happened: a motion to introduce Ordinance 25‑09 was moved and seconded; the assembly recorded a roll-call introduction with affirmative votes from members present. During discussion, a staff member said the bid came in lower than the state-approved maximum and that $24,000 the borough previously planned to contribute would now be covered by the state’s additional work. After that exchange, an assembly member moved to postpone the ordinance until the next meeting; the motion to postpone passed unanimously.
Why it matters: the ordinance would have accepted state funding and authorized the borough to proceed with repairs on Clear Fire Road. Assembly members said acceptance is largely procedural and will return once staff completes updated numbers and the ordinance text.
Next steps: staff will present an updated ordinance with the correct dollar amount at the next meeting; members postponed formal approval to allow the paperwork to match the final bid and state contribution.
