Borough Administrator Alex Palumbo told the council on Jan. 20 that the 80 Bloomfield Avenue project is nearing completion, with officials hoping most work will be finished by the end of January and a move‑in date to be set once details are finalized.
Palumbo said staff member Mike DeCarlo has been obtaining quotes from moving companies to support the transition. The administrator also reported that the Oversight Committee has focused on the Old Library building and expects to put the project out for bid in mid‑February, with an anticipated award in April.
