Pitman council approves consent agenda: grants, municipal aid application, police vehicle purchase and tax grace extension
Summary
Council approved Resolutions 116–123 by unanimous roll call, endorsing grant revenue insertions, a NJDOT municipal aid application for Mansfield Ave resurfacing, acceptance of a Municipal Alliance grant, a tax grace-period extension, and authorization to purchase two Ford Explorers for the police department.
Councilwoman Guarni presented the consent agenda covering Resolutions No. 116 through No. 123 and the council approved the package in a single motion (motion Guarni; second Fitzpatrick). The consent items include insertion of Safe and Secure Communities grant revenues (Resolutions 116 and 117), endorsement of an NJDOT Municipal Aid application for Mansfield Ave resurfacing (Resolution 118), acceptance of a Municipal Alliance grant for fiscal year 2025–2026 (Resolution 120), an extension of the grace period for third‑quarter 2025 taxes (Resolution 121), and authorization to purchase two 2024 Ford Explorer vehicles for the Pitman Police Department (Resolution 122).
The minutes record the roll call vote as yes from all members present. The NJDOT application for Mansfield Ave was specifically identified as "Municipal Aid from the NJDOT for Local Aid for the Resurfacing of Mansfield Ave – Phase 2 #00588." The tax grace‑period resolution follows the meeting’s earlier note that tax bills have not yet been mailed because the budget is awaiting State approval.
