Summary
Council passed multiple ordinances authorizing sale of city‑owned parcels across Trenton under NJSA 40A:12‑13(c), including Walnut, Chambers, Oak, Edgewood and other listed addresses; each ordinance passed by unanimous roll call of members present.
Trenton — City Council on Monday approved a series of ordinances authorizing the sale of multiple city‑owned parcels under NJSA 40A:12‑13(c), taking the items largely on a consent calendar and recording roll‑call votes in favor.
Ordinances approved on second reading and by roll call included authorization to sell properties identified on the municipal tax map (examples recorded in the meeting minutes): 240, 242 and 244 Walnut Avenue (block 26402, lots 10–12); 7, 11 and 13 Chambers Street; 39 Oak Street; 279 Walnut Avenue; 20 Binmar Avenue; several Edgewood Avenue parcels (1550–1574 Edgewood Ave) and additional parcels listed during the meeting. Each ordinance passed with the six councilmembers present voting yes.
The clerk also presented a packet of resolutions (26‑213 through 26‑233, plus a walk‑on recognizing Pride Month) that were approved on consent. Council members said those routine approvals included conveyance paperwork and administrative actions consistent with past practice.
Council President and members noted the need for staff to follow through with conveyance paperwork and recording deeds, and asked departments to coordinate on implementation and public notification so buyers and neighbors have clear next steps.
What's next: Administrative staff were assigned follow‑up duties to complete conveyance paperwork, record realized sales and ensure that any conditions attached to the sales are met before transfer of title.
