Summary
The borough dedicated the Poplar Avenue open-space parcel opposite the public library as the "Mayor Janet Tucci Park & Reading Garden" in recognition of Mayor Tucci's public service; signage will be installed.
The Borough Council unanimously approved a resolution June 17 dedicating the open-space parcel on Poplar Avenue, across from the West Long Branch Public Library, as the "Mayor Janet Tucci Park & Reading Garden." The resolution says signage will be installed to reflect the dedication.
Mayor Janet W. Tucci thanked her colleagues and residents "for the tremendous honor of dedicating the park and reading garden in her name," according to the meeting record. Councilmember Bray moved the dedication resolution and Councilmember Sniffen seconded; the vote carried unanimously.
The resolution cites Mayor Tucci's support for public spaces and community engagement as the rationale for the dedication. The parcel remains borough-owned and will be maintained by the borough.
