Red Bank Council adopts ordinance adding two 15‑minute parking spaces on Broad Street
Summary
On final reading the borough council adopted Ordinance 2026‑20 to create two 15‑minute parking spaces on Broad Street at Peter's Place; the measure passed by unanimous roll call.
The Red Bank Borough Council voted to adopt Ordinance 2026‑20, an amendment to chapter 680 (Vehicles and Traffic) that creates two 15‑minute parking spaces on Broad Street at Peter’s Place.
Mayor William Portman opened the final public hearing on the ordinance; no public comments were recorded during the hearing. The council then moved to approve the ordinance on final reading and adoption. A roll‑call vote recorded "yes" from the council members and mayor present: Council member Botax, Council member Facy Blackwood, Council member Forest, Council member Janone, Council member Yuro, Deputy Mayor Trigiano and Mayor Portman.
The ordinance was introduced May 28, 2026; the final vote completes the local legislative process for this traffic change. Council members said the short‑term spaces were added in response to requests from downtown businesses and River Center representatives to improve short‑term access for customers.
Next steps: the borough will implement signage and parking markings to reflect the new 15‑minute spaces. The borough clerk will publish the ordinance adoption per local code.
