Woodland Township Committee reschedules December meeting, authorizes fire truck PO and agrees to readvertise 4007 Rt. 563
Summary
At its Nov. 19, 2025 workshop, the Woodland Township Committee agreed to move the Dec. 17 meeting to Dec. 18, authorized a purchase order for a 2026 Ford F-250 for the fire department, voted to readvertise bids for 4007 Rt. 563 after no offers were received, discussed an NJDEP-required watershed inventory proposal from Pennoni, and directed the solicitor to contact the Pinelands Commission about cannabis grow regulations.
Woodland Township Committee members met in workshop session on Nov. 19, 2025. Mayor DeGroff called the meeting to order and Clerk Maryalice Brown read the Open Public Meetings Act statement.
The committee agreed to reschedule the regularly scheduled Dec. 17 meeting to Dec. 18; Clerk Maryalice Brown said she would post and distribute the updated notice and agenda. The reschedule was recorded as a consensus direction to the clerk in the minutes.
The committee reviewed enforcement of illegal dumping at the township transfer station. The minutes record discussion of enforcement options and ordinance review but do not record a decision to adopt or amend any ordinance.
Clerk Brown reported that no bids were received for the property at 4007 Rt. 563; the committee reached consensus to readvertise the solicitation for bids. The minutes do not list any bid amounts or additional conditions attached to the readvertisement.
On public-safety equipment, the committee recorded authorization of a purchase order for a 2026 Ford F-250 with upgrades for the Fire Department. The minutes state the PO was authorized but do not list a dollar amount or a roll-call vote for the authorization.
The committee also discussed a watershed-inventory requirement from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and noted receipt of a proposal from engineering firm Pennoni to prepare the required report. The minutes show discussion of next steps but do not record a contract award or contract value.
On potential siting and regulation of a cannabis grow facility, Solicitor William Burns was directed to contact Mr. Horner at the Pinelands Commission to clarify applicable regulations and timelines; the minutes record that Burns would make the inquiry but do not summarize any response.
There were no public comments recorded. Mayor DeGroff moved to adjourn, Committeewoman Mull seconded, and the meeting was adjourned at 6:31 p.m.
What’s next: the clerk will post the new Dec. 18 meeting notice; the township will readvertise bids for 4007 Rt. 563 and await responses, and the solicitor will report back after contacting the Pinelands Commission. The minutes do not include dollar amounts for the authorized PO or contract proposals, nor do they record roll-call votes on the administrative authorizations.
