Council approves consent agenda including tax appeals, sale to Blairstown and project closeout; select abstentions recorded
Summary
The Hawthorne Borough Council approved a consent agenda (Resolutions R38‑25 through R43‑25) covering several tax appeal settlements, the sale of a truck body to Blairstown and a project closeout and escrow release, with one recorded abstention on the Blairstown sale.
The council approved the consent agenda (R38‑25 through R43‑25), which included multiple state tax appeal settlements, the sale of a truck body to the Township of Blairstown (R42‑25) and a project closeout and escrow release for hedges at 204 Wagga Road (R43‑25).
Councilman Witecki requested the record note an abstention on the Blairstown sale resolution; he stated he would vote "yes" on the other items. Other council members voted in favor and the chair announced the motion carried.
Council discussed whether the escrow release for the 204 Wagga Road hedges should be conditioned on removal of rental signage; one council member said Bedrock (or the project applicant) had complied with prior requirements and the council proceeded with the release. The clerk will process the associated checks and the resolutions will be recorded in the minutes.
