The Holmdel Board of Education approved a motion to submit a water infrastructure grant application during its July meeting. The motion was moved and seconded and passed after a roll-call vote by members present.
Board members moved quickly on the single action item listed for the meeting. A motion to approve the submission was made and seconded; the board then proceeded to a roll-call vote during which multiple members recorded “yes” and the chair declared the item approved.
The meeting record does not include the grant program name beyond “water infrastructure grant,” a dollar amount, or the agency to which the district will apply. No discussion of project scope, budget, or implementation followed the vote during the public meeting.
The approval was the only formal action taken during the meeting; all other items on the agenda were presented as reports or committee updates. Any next steps — for example, who will complete the application, whether the board will vote on matching funds, or when the grant would be submitted — were not specified in the public record.
Board members present at the roll call included Mr. Mann (board president) and several fellow members; the transcript records individual “yes” responses during roll call but does not attach each vote to a complete recorded motion text in the minutes provided.
For now the district’s public materials list the item only as the “submission of water infrastructure grant application”; the board did not provide additional detail at the meeting about the application timeline or implementation contingencies.
