Township committee adopts handicap parking ordinance, introduces clerk/records code change and approves payroll
Summary
The committee adopted Ordinance 24 to add a handicap parking space at 103 Palermo Avenue, introduced Ordinance 25 to update clerk/records language (public hearing Oct. 1), approved the consent calendar and authorized payroll and bills payments including an August payroll of $2,566,194.12.
Egg Harbor Township's committee acted on several routine legislative items during the meeting, approving a traffic‑related ordinance, introducing a code amendment and adopting multiple resolutions.
Ordinance 24 was presented by the clerk and adopted after a motion to close the public portion (no public speakers). The ordinance amends Chapter 213 (vehicles and traffic) to create a handicap parking space at 103 Palermo Avenue.
Ordinance 25 was introduced to amend Chapter 6, section 6‑12, to update the designation and duties of the deputy custodian of records and to revise fees for access to government records to conform with the Open Public Records Act (citing NJSA 47:1A‑1). A public hearing on Ordinance 25 was scheduled for Oct. 1, 2025, at 5 p.m.
The committee adopted the consent calendar (resolutions 413 through 437) and approved Resolution 438 authorizing payment of bills. The committee also approved payroll for August 2025 in the amount of $2,566,194.12. Multiple sets of minutes, including prior closed‑session minutes, were approved as amended by the township solicitor.
Votes were recorded by roll call and the meeting record showed approval for the items described; the transcript does not provide full individual vote tallies tied to named members in every instance.
What happens next: Ordinance 25 will return to a public hearing on Oct. 1, 2025; other adopted resolutions and payroll payments will proceed in accordance with township finance procedures.
