Borough to advertise trash contract, roll out new totes; water meter deadline set
Summary
Officials said the borough’s trash contract will be advertised, new totes should improve curbside compliance over about a year, and residents must install new water meters by Dec. 31, 2025 or face a $50 late-installation fee; a new water line will be installed on Vulcan Lane on June 9.
Michelle Poole told council that the borough’s trash contract will be ready to advertise. Amy Lau said the forthcoming trash totes should help residents comply with pickup rules and that town staff expect to see benefits after roughly one year as the new service becomes routine.
During Public Works updates, Dennis Klinedinst said residents must have the new water meter installed by the end of December 2025 or face a $50 fine for late installation. Klinedinst also reported that the new water line will be installed at Vulcan Lane on June 9, 2025.
The minutes record a $1,000 quote to remove trees from a Linden stormwater-basin property and multiple operational requests to add signage (no truck signage and no parking zones) to a list for the borough attorney to consider for ordinance updates. No formal contract award or final administrative vote on the trash contract or meter policy is recorded in these work-session minutes.
