Southampton ends architect contract, authorizes RFPs; approves licenses and payments
Summary
After executive session the Committee added and adopted a resolution terminating the township's architect contract and authorizing requests for proposals; members also approved storage-container licenses and bills for payment (one abstention).
Following an executive session on attorney‑client matters, the Southampton Township Committee on March 10, 2026 amended the agenda to add Resolution 2026-42 and then adopted it, terminating the existing contract with the township architect and authorizing issuance of requests for proposals for architectural services.
Township Attorney George Morris reported the need to add the resolution after executive session; the Committee voted to amend the agenda and approved Resolution 2026-42 by roll call. The executive session began at 7:18 p.m. and the Committee returned to open session at 7:54 p.m.
Other business taken that evening included approval of storage‑container licenses for 2344 Route 206 (two containers) and 123 Red Lion Road (one container). The Committee approved bills for payment; the roll call on bills was affirmative except Committeeman James Young abstained from the bills vote. The meeting adjourned at 7:55 p.m.
What happens next: The Township will issue RFPs for architectural services as authorized; no procurement timeline was read into the public record at the meeting. The Committee did not discuss details of the previous architect contract in open session beyond adopting the termination resolution.
