The Somerset County Board of Commissioners voted June 24 to approve resolution 25-1200, authorizing a grant from the Somerset County Open Space Trust to North Plainfield Borough for development of an Americans with Disabilities Act-accessible playground at Green Acres Park not to exceed $435,000.
The Board called for a roll call vote after asking for motion and second. Commissioners recorded unanimous support for the measure: Commissioner Greiner — yes; Commissioner Drake — yes; Commissioner Sui — yes; Deputy Director Marano — yes; Director Robinson — yes.
The resolution was presented during the meeting’s consent agenda and passed alongside multiple other county resolutions. The resolution text in the meeting packet identified the funding source as the Somerset County Open Space Trust and capped the grant at $435,000.
No discussion of the playground’s detailed design, contractor selection or construction timetable occurred on the record at the meeting. Commissioners approved additional resolution ranges in sequence; the meeting did not announce specific implementation steps, timelines or county oversight beyond the authorization.
The vote recorded in the meeting is a formal county action authorizing the grant; further steps such as contract execution and project oversight would follow county administrative procedures.
