Summary

Council approved the consent agenda (items 1–16) and adopted a resolution to hold a special closed personnel session; several administrative resolutions introduced during the meeting were handled via the consent process.

The Borough of New Providence moved and approved the consent agenda containing routine administrative and procurement items at the April 14 meeting. Councilors approved items en bloc after a motion and second; the clerk conducted a roll call during which members indicated assent.

Items discussed and placed on the consent agenda earlier in the evening included:

- Resolution 2026‑129: Authorization to apply for a T‑Mobile Hometown Grant (up to $40,000) to upgrade courtroom audio for accessibility and better meeting/courtroom sound. - Resolution 2026‑130: Approval of requisition R2600765 to Dell Computers not to exceed $2,730 for desktop replacements. - Resolution 2026‑132: Return of escrow in the amount of $1,711.60 to Chagun Holdings (Primrose School) following certificate of occupancy. - Resolution 2026‑133: Awarding on‑call electrical contracts to Sunny Electric Inc. and Trinity Electric LLC through 03/31/2027. - Resolution 2026‑139 to 141: Public‑works related requisitions for summer help, Armstrong Inc. desnagging and masonry paver work (including a $32,750 requisition to Mazuko Masonry LLC).

Council also read and approved Resolution 2026‑3a to hold a special, closed session on April 14 to discuss personnel matters; the resolution sets the date and time, excludes the public and was carried on roll call.

The consent agenda vote and the closed‑session resolution were recorded in the meeting transcript as approved; the clerk read items and roll call responses indicate assent by the members present. No separate roll call tally with individual vote names for every consent item appears in the transcript beyond the verbal confirmations recorded during the meeting.
