Votes at a glance: Narberth council, March 20, 2025
Summary
Council approved multiple administrative and program items at the March 20 meeting, including a striping pilot, revised rules of procedure and authorization to advertise the 2025 road paving program.
At its March 20 business meeting, Narberth Borough Council voted on several formal items. The following outcomes were recorded on the meeting record:
- Consent agenda: The council moved to approve the consent agenda (items as printed) and then adjusted to remove one item (employee handbook item) for additional review. The final vote on the adjusted consent agenda (items a through f and h) was unanimous among members present.
- Striping plan (200 block of Price Avenue): Approved (unanimous among members present). The pilot will add sight-line triangles at four driveways and remove two parking spaces at the Essex/Price intersection; it is temporary and will be re-evaluated in roughly six months.
- Manual and rules of procedure (Resolution 2025-07): Adopted (vote 6-0; one member absent). The package included updated public-comment guidelines and a new rule about council members' private discussions with interested parties.
- Oktoberfest alcohol usage / indemnification agreement: Council approved the indemnification/agreement needed for alcohol service at the proposed Oktoberfest event; the vote was unanimous among members present.
- Office vestibule design: Approved (unanimous among members present). The design estimate in the packet was about $6,700; staff will schedule installation and coordinate accessibility and key-fob access.
- Road paving advertising (2025 program): Authorized to advertise (unanimous among members present); staff said the total budget is just above $300,000.
- Oath of office: Craig Stevens was sworn in to the Civil Service Commission to fill a vacancy; the council administered the oath during the meeting.
Notes: Where the transcript did not record a named motion maker for a vote, the meeting record shows the motion text and that a second occurred; the transcript recorded final vote tallies for some items (for example, the rules package) and indicated unanimous approval for several approvals. No ordinances were adopted on second reading at this meeting.
