Penndel to issue RFP for stream-restoration design under Growing Greener grant; approves soil testing

Penndel Borough Council · March 2, 2026

Summary

Council directed the borough engineer to prepare an RFP to select an environmental design firm for stream restoration under a Growing Greener grant and approved limited soil testing at Memorial Park (about $3,600) with optional testing at Taddei Woods (about $500).

Penndel Borough will solicit proposals from environmental design firms to carry out stream-restoration design and permitting funded by a Growing Greener grant. Council directed the borough engineer to prepare and issue a request for proposals and to send the draft RFP to multiple firms as required by the grant's competitive procurement rules.

The engineer also requested and received authorization for limited soil testing at Memorial Park to evaluate infiltration for a trail project, estimating the cost "about $3,600." She added that testing at one or two locations in Taddei Woods could be coordinated concurrent with the Memorial Park work for an additional "about $500." The soil results may expand stormwater-management and trail design options.
