Personnel and Budget Committee to recommend Fenwick Manor renovation bids to full Pinelands Commission

The Personnel and Budget Committee of the Pinelands Commission reported that it reviewed bids for renovations to Fenwick Manor in closed session and will prepare a recommendation for the full commission at its April meeting. The presiding officer said the committee had "discussed the receipt of bids for uh renovations to the Fenwick Manor and will be prepared to make a recommendation to the full commission at its April meeting." No other formal action was taken on the matter.

The committee chair asked the director whether there were any additional items; the director replied, "Not on our end." A committee member made a brief, lighthearted remark thanking colleagues for convening the meeting and said they appreciated being "pulled me out of my coma," drawing laughter.

After brief discussion and no further business, a committee member moved to adjourn. The presiding officer called for the question and members voiced their assent; the motion carried and the meeting was closed. The transcript does not record bidder names, bid amounts, or the committee's preferred bidder. Those details are expected to be raised when the committee presents its recommendation to the full Pinelands Commission in April.

Next steps: the Personnel and Budget Committee will forward its recommendation on Fenwick Manor renovation bids to the full Pinelands Commission for consideration at the commission's April meeting.
