South Plainfield council approves contract authorization with Middlesex Water for Oak Tree Avenue work

The South Plainfield Borough Council voted to pass Resolution 25-60 at its meeting, authorizing the administrator to execute a contract with Middlesex Water for work on Oak Tree Avenue and adjacent roadways; the final contract price will be determined by the borough engineer.

The chair opened the item asking for a motion to add Resolution 25-60, saying, "I'm looking for a motion to add Resolution 25-60 authorizing the administrator to execute a contract with Middlesex Water at a price to be determined by the borough engineer for work to be done on Oak Tree Avenue and adjacent roadways." Councilman Smith moved the motion and Council President White seconded it.

Clerk Antonis called the roll. Councilman Benjer, Councilwoman Fi, Councilwoman M, Councilman Smith, Councilman Willock and Council President White voted yes; the motion passed on that roll-call vote. No opposing votes or abstentions were recorded on the transcript. The measure authorizes the administrator to sign the contract; the resolution and the motion state that the borough engineer will establish the final contract price.

After the vote, Council President White moved to adjourn the meeting; Councilwoman Pastini seconded. The chair closed the meeting, saying the council was adjourned and wishing attendees a good evening.

The transcript does not state the dollar value of the contract, the timeline for the work, or which department will manage construction; those details were noted as "to be determined by the borough engineer."
