Montgomery Committee adopts three ordinances, accepts Malvern easement; consent agenda approved
Summary
The Montgomery Township Committee adopted three ordinances (including property acquisition and police-department changes), accepted a right-of-way and drainage easement from Malvern School Properties LP, and approved the consent agenda; several appointments and resolutions also passed.
The Montgomery Township Committee adopted multiple ordinances and resolutions during its regular meeting, approving property and police-department code changes and accepting an easement from Malvern School Properties LP.
Ordinances adopted: the committee moved and adopted Ordinance 24-1735 to acquire Block 11001 Lot 35 (the Hunt Skillman property), Ord. 24-1737 amending police department membership provisions, and Ord. 24-1738 accepting a right-of-way dedication and a related drainage easement from Malvern School Properties LP. Each ordinance opened for public hearing in the meeting record, drew no public comments during the hearings and was approved on roll call.
Easement and planning context: staff explained the Malvern easement supplements earlier planning-board approvals and covers drainage and potential emergency access across Brecknell Way. The committee voted to authorize execution of the easement agreement by resolution.
Consent agenda: the committee approved the consent agenda by single motion; the record notes that the deputy mayor and another committee member recorded planned abstentions on specific items so those items did not need to be pulled for separate votes.
What happens next: the ordinances will be published according to law and the acquisition ordinance included a scheduled final vote/hearing date per the municipal notice recorded in the meeting.
