The Borough of Stone Harbor’s work session on May 20, 2025, reviewed a slate of items slated for the borough’s Regular Legislative Meeting, including budget items, routine resolutions and a proposed contract award.
Mayor Timothy J. Carney opened the meeting at 5:00 p.m. and read the borough’s adequate-notice statement, noting the annual schedule was posted, mailed to The Press of Atlantic City and The Cape May Herald, and filed with the clerk in compliance with the New Jersey Open Public Meetings Act (N.J.S.A. 10:4-12).
The agenda listed budget-related resolutions: a temporary budget amendment (Resolution 2025-S-138) and a resolution to adopt the 2025 municipal budget (Resolution 2025-S-139). The items were presented for consideration at the borough’s legislative meeting and were not recorded as adopted during the work session.
Other routine items on the agenda included a refund of an annual residential rental late fee (Resolution 2025-S-140) and approval of special-event applications (Resolution 2025-S-141) for: Stone Harbor Men's Softball League on June 1, 2025; St. Brendan the Navigator Parish Corpus Christi Procession on June 22, 2025; 7 Mile Island Players play practice June 30–July 25, 2025; and the Stone Harbor Triathlon on July 13, 2025.
The agenda also listed Resolution 2025-S-142 to award an Employee Assistance Program/services contract to Shore Counseling, LLC and to authorize the mayor to sign the contract. The transcribed contract amount contained a formatting error ($41,20.00); the minutes indicate the amount presented on the agenda is approximately $41,200.
Routine financial business (Resolution 2025-S-145 to authorize payment of payrolls and bills) and a proposed closed-session resolution (2025-S-146) to discuss potential litigation and personnel matters under N.J.S.A. 10:4-12 were also listed on the legislative agenda. The work session minutes record these items as agenda items rather than final actions.
On a motion by Councilmember Victor Foschini, seconded by Councilmember Jennifer Gensemer, the work session was carried and adjourned at 5:36 p.m.
