Somerset County approves open-space grant for Rocky Hill boardwalk, adopts multiple resolutions
Summary
The Somerset County Commissioners approved an open-space grant not to exceed $240,235 to the Borough of Rocky Hill for an elevated boardwalk at Van Horn Park and voted to adopt several batches of routine resolutions. The public portion opened and closed with no speakers and no executive session was held.
The Somerset County Commissioners approved a Somerset County Open Space Trust grant to the Borough of Rocky Hill for construction of an elevated boardwalk at Van Horn Park and adopted multiple batch resolutions during a brief regular meeting.
The grant, recorded as Resolution 25-300, authorizes an award to the Borough of Rocky Hill “not to exceed $240,235” for development of the elevated boardwalk at Van Horn Park. Commissioners moved and approved the resolution by roll call; the transcript records members voting “yes,” but individual vote tallies or names were not provided.
The board also approved the minutes of its Jan. 28 meeting. Commissioners then approved several grouped resolution batches by motion: Resolutions 25-301 through 25-312; 25-313 through 25-328; 25-329 through 25-377; and 25-378 through 25-383. Each batch was moved and adopted by roll call; the record indicates affirmation (“Yes”) for each vote but does not list individual votes or counts in the available transcript.
The meeting opened a public-comment period under the board’s five-minute rule with no yielding or time-sharing; no members of the public spoke, and staff reported no emails or phone calls. Commissioners subsequently closed the public portion by motion. The transcript records that there was no executive session and the meeting was adjourned.
