Old Tappan council adopts consent resolution covering contracts and budget items
Summary
The Borough of Old Tappan mayor and council adopted a consent resolution approving routine bills, budget transfers, interlocal agreements and an animal-control contract; the animal-control timing and whether it should be handled during budget season were discussed.
The Borough of Old Tappan mayor and council adopted a consent resolution that packaged routine bills and claims, 2025 budget transfers, assessment billing items and several contracts, including an interlocal services agreement, an animal-control services contract, a cooperative pricing agreement and police employee health savings account contributions. Speaker 2 introduced the consent package and Speaker 3 read its text. Council discussed the animal-control contract timing, with one council member asking why the contract appears now instead of during the regular budget process. Council members replied that the contract is for the calendar year (Jan. 1–Dec. 31) and that the change preserves continuity; no dissent was recorded.
The motion to approve the consent resolution received a second and passed on a roll call of members present. The resolution was presented as a consent agenda item and recorded as adopted; no amendments were made.
