Woolwich committee adopts consent agenda, approves stormwater contract and routine business; bills approved with one partial dissent
Summary
On Feb. 2 the Woolwich Township Committee adopted a consent agenda that included a $45,000 not-to-exceed stormwater management contract, approved several routine resolutions and bills, authorized closed session on a police PBA contract, and recorded Committeeman Frederick's dissent on several historic RVE invoices and an abstention on a Verizon charge.
The Woolwich Township Committee on Feb. 2 adopted a consent agenda of resolutions, approved bills and purchase orders, and handled several items of routine business.
Notable actions adopted as part of the consent agenda included R-2026-58, a resolution authorizing a contract for 2026 stormwater management services to Bryson & Yates Consulting Engineers, LLC in an amount not to exceed $45,000, and other routine measures: R-2026-59 (tax refund for overpayment), R-2026-60 (release of a performance bond and acceptance of a maintenance bond for Villages II at Weatherby, Section 2.5), R-2026-61 (Payment No. 9 to Wyndham Construction LLC for Locke Avenue Park Development Phase I), R-2026-62 (appointments to the Agricultural Advisory/Open Space Committee), and R-2026-64 (authorizing budget appropriation transfers during the first three months of the succeeding year).
Two items were removed from the consent agenda for separate consideration. R-2026-63 (additional compensation to Remington & Vernick Engineers for supplemental services not to exceed $38,330) failed on a recorded vote; R-2026-63A (Change Order No. 2 to Wyndham Construction in an amount not to exceed $723,519.82 for additional field lighting) was tabled. The committee also adopted R-2026-65 authorizing a closed session to discuss contractual matters related to the Police Administration PBA contract; the committee entered closed session at 7:17 p.m. and returned at 7:31 p.m.
The committee approved bills and purchase orders as submitted. Committeeman Frederick recorded No votes on specified Remington & Vernick Engineers invoices and abstained on a Verizon charge; the remaining members voted Yes and the bills were approved.
Other business: the committee approved a clothing donation drive to begin Feb. 8, discussed reapplying for a LRIG recreational grant for the Center Square Road walkway project, and heard a public comment asking why park lights remain on when the park is empty and suggesting odd/even winter parking rules. Mayor Matthias reminded residents of a town hall on Feb. 9 and the next meeting on Feb. 17. The meeting adjourned at 7:33 p.m.
