Votes at a glance: Woolwich approves consent agenda, emergency budget and introduces bond increase
Summary
Woolwich approved consent resolutions covering appointments and agreements, adopted an emergency temporary budget and salary fixes after executive session, and introduced a $10 million bond appropriation increase for open-space recreation.
At its March 3 meeting, the Woolwich Township Committee approved multiple routine and substantive measures on a single agenda.
The committee adopted a consent agenda covering resolutions R-2025-64 through R-2025-71 (appointments, shared-service agreements, contract authorizations, and endorsements for treatment works approvals), while temporarily removing R-2025-72 (salaries). R-2025-72 was later un-tabled and adopted after executive session. The committee also un-tabled and adopted R-2025-73, a 2025 emergency temporary budget under NJSA 40A:4-20.
The meeting included a motion to introduce Bond Ordinance 2025-07, which would amend Bond Ordinance 2018-09 to increase the appropriation for municipal open-space recreation by $10,000,000 and increase bond authorization by $9,600,000; the committee voted 5–0 to introduce that ordinance for further proceedings.
Other actions: the committee approved bills and purchase orders; an abstention on Verizon bills by Committeeman Frederick was noted in the roll call record. The meeting adjourned at 9:37 p.m.
