Bridgeport council approves ordinance update, emergency plan and routine items
Summary
At its May 26 meeting, the Bridgeport Borough Council approved Ordinance 202603 (amending Chapter 331), adopted Resolution 202634 updating the borough emergency operations plan, and approved routine minutes, bills and a mower purchase; votes were taken by voice and the motions carried as recorded.
The Bridgeport Borough Council on May 26 approved a batch of routine and policy items, including an ordinance amending the borough’s licensing and business regulations and an updated emergency operations plan.
Ordinance 202603, described on the agenda as an amendment to Chapter 331 (licenses, permits and general business regulations), was moved by Miss Hal and seconded by Miss Cassenza. The motion carried on a voice vote, with the chair noting the motion "carries." The council did not record a roll‑call tally in the meeting transcript.
Council also adopted Resolution 202634, described as an updated emergency operations plan for Bridgeport. The motion was moved by Miss Scundram and seconded by Miss Nolan and carried by voice vote.
Separately the council authorized the purchase of an SWZ walk‑behind mower from Upper Maran Lawn Center; the meeting record lists the amount as "$7,28.71" (format unclear in the transcript). Borough manager Keith Truman explained the purchase will be absorbed into the general fund operating budget rather than the capital budget. The council also approved payment of bills and salaries for May 2026 and approved meeting minutes from April 28 and May 12, 2026.
All actions on the agenda were recorded in the meeting as carried; the transcript does not include detailed roll‑call vote tallies for these items. The council moved on after the approvals to committee reports and mayoral and police updates.
