Bayonne council adopts traffic ordinance amendments after second reading

The Bayonne City Council ordered final passage of a traffic ordinance amending Chapter 7 of the city code after a second reading and public hearing at its Sept. 16 meeting.

The ordinance—introduced Aug. 12 and publicly noticed—was subject to the statutory public hearing. The council moved to close the hearing, voted on the resolution ordering final passage and recorded 'Aye' votes in roll call; the ordinance was adopted without recorded public opposition at the time of the hearing.

The council followed the same procedural steps used for other ordinances on the agenda, including publishing notice and reading the ordinance by title during the meeting. No substantive debate over the ordinance text was recorded in the meeting transcript.
