Woodstown council votes to terminate public works laborer Brian Foote Jr.
Summary
Following a closed-session personnel discussion on March 10, 2026, the Woodstown Borough Council unanimously approved Resolution 2026-44 terminating the employment of Public Works laborer Brian Foote Jr. with cause.
After convening a closed session for personnel, the Woodstown Borough Council on March 10, 2026 returned to open session and adopted Resolution 2026-44 to terminate the employment of Public Works laborer Brian Foote Jr.
The motion to enter closed session for personnel was made by Glenn Merkle and seconded by Jesse Stemberger; the council reported all were in favor. Following return to open session, Merkle moved the termination motion, Bertha Hyman seconded it, and the resolution was approved by unanimous roll call vote.
The minutes record the personnel action but do not provide further detail concerning the grounds for termination. The council recorded that the termination was "with cause." The council adjourned later that evening at 7:36 p.m.
Because the minutes only record the action and the council's procedural votes, any additional inquiries about personnel-process details or appeals would need to be directed to borough administration or the municipal solicitor, per standard personnel policies.
