The South Plainfield Borough Council unanimously adopted Ordinance 2381 on final reading, authorizing an appropriation of $1,375,000 to prepare and carry out a borough‑wide real property revaluation.
Mayor Matthew Gesh read the ordinance title on the floor and the council opened the public hearing; no members of the public spoke on the matter. Councilman White moved final adoption and Council President Fini seconded. The clerk called the roll and all voting members recorded "yes," making the ordinance final.
