Summary

During board comments April 17, a planning board member submitted a letter of resignation and two borough planning staff announced their final meetings; staff warned the May 1 agenda may run short due to a concurrent Assembly meeting.

A planning board member told colleagues on April 17 that they had submitted a letter of resignation that morning, and borough planning staff confirmed two upcoming departures ahead of the May 1 meeting.

One planning member said they submitted a letter of resignation earlier that morning and that this would be their last meeting. The transcript does not record a full name for that member during the announcement.

White Anderson, identified in the meeting as a planning staff member ("Planning SAP" in the transcript), said May 1 would be their final meeting. Anderson said they and their spouse plan to move out of state, and that May 1 would be their last day serving in that position.

Fred Wagner, the borough planning officer, told the board there will be three cases on the May 1 agenda and warned the Assembly scheduled a 4:00 p.m. meeting that day could create a time constraint that might require the planning board to continue business if it could not finish within the allotted time. Wagner encouraged recruitment for planning‑related positions and suggested searching local real estate offices, title companies and surveying candidates for potential applicants.

Board members also noted availability updates: one member said they will be absent on May 1. The board offered brief remarks thanking the departing member and staff for their service.

None of the departures recorded in the transcript included formal motions or votes; they were announcements made during the board comments portion of the meeting.
