Bayonne approves nearly $5 million contract to rebuild Russell Golding Park
Bayonne City Council voted Dec. 17 to award a construction contract for improvements to Russell Golding Park to Criscerno Giordano Construction LLC for $4,970,392.

Council members described the award as the culmination of a multiyear effort to fund and advance a major park reconstruction. Council comments indicated the project is largely funded through a roughly $5 million grant and will act as a gateway improvement for the neighborhood.

The contract award was made as part of the meetings officers' reports and resolutions (R‑12). When the measure came to the floor, the vote carried with recorded "Aye" votes and no recorded opposition at the time of the roll call. Council members welcomed the award as a significant capital investment and noted it will change the area around the park.

What happens next: the awarded contractor will proceed under the contract; city staff will coordinate construction timelines, permitting and public notifications. Council members said they are “very happy to finally award this contract” and described the project as a substantial grant‑funded effort.

Provenance: the contract award is recorded in the meeting minutes and roll call (R‑12).
