Summary
The Brooklawn Borough Council adopted ordinances on lead-paint inspections, redevelopment planning and zoning amendments and approved a consent agenda of resolutions including a DOT award-extension request for Third Street and local support for a Class 5 cannabis retail application.
At its Oct. 2 regular meeting, the Brooklawn Borough Council opened a public hearing on multiple ordinances, received no public comment on those items, closed the hearing and moved to adopt ordinance numbers 19 through 23 of 2024. The ordinances cover lead-paint inspection requirements for rental properties, readoption of a redevelopment plan, zoning and design-standard amendments.
The council then approved a consent agenda of resolutions that included: municipal participation in a state secure program, authorization for municipal liens, bingo/raffle licenses for St. Mary's Church, acceptance of a certified list of eligible fire-department members for the Length of Service Award Program (LOSAP), submission under NJSA 40A:4-87 of an 11,200+ revenue appropriation for drunk-driving enforcement funds, and an award-extension request to the New Jersey Department of Transportation for the borough's Third Street improvement project. The consent agenda also included a resolution authorizing local support for a Class 5 cannabis retail license application.
The ordinances and consent agenda were adopted by roll-call vote; the meeting transcript records affirmative votes by council members present. No detailed vote tallies were recorded in the public portion of the transcript beyond roll-call affirmations.
