Pitman discusses Armory development notice as remediation questions remain
Summary
Council reviewed a draft announcement inviting proposals for the Armory site but discussed ongoing remediation at the back corner and whether the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers would remain responsible for cleanup and monitoring if the property is sold; staff will locate a survey and clarify responsibilities.
Solicitor Vigilante presented a draft announcement inviting development proposals for the Armory property and outlined remediation work underway at the site's back corner. Council members raised questions about whether the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers would continue cleanup and monitoring obligations if the borough sold the property or if a subdivision excluded the remediated area.
Administrator McCafferty agreed to locate a survey to define the remediation area and to confirm which party would be responsible for ongoing cleanup or monitoring. No decisions were made about sale boundaries or solicitation deadlines; the discussion was intended to clarify environmental liabilities before the borough issues a public solicitation for proposals.
