The Township Committee on June 4 approved a series of procurement and fiscal actions on consent and separate roll-call items. Key approvals read into the record included a professional services agreement with BLM Consultants LLC (not to exceed $224,195), purchase of a mobile command unit through Sourcewell (not to exceed $275,900), renewal of Motorola public safety radio services and training (not to exceed $115,827), and a change order for Lancha Construction adding $122,500 to the 2025 road improvement phase one contract (revised total $1,377,167).
Committee members also approved an award to Eminem Construction, Inc. for library maintenance (not to exceed $144,000), an increase to Eminem Construction’s general construction management contract (increase $300,000 to $350,000 total), acceptance of a $5,000 performance bond and establishment of a $1,500 special trust fund for 2461 Iorio LLC, and renewal of certain liquor licenses for the July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 licensing period. Payment requests from the township engineer for Lancha Construction were read: $147,210.64 (payment #2) and $137,447.94 (payment #1) for road program work through May 29, 2026.
Several amounts in the meeting transcript include typographical errors (for example, the transcript lists the police vest amount as '$30,9920' and an earlier EV van purchase amount shown as '$112,55984'); these entries are noted in the meeting record and flagged for clerical correction in official files. The meeting record indicates that motions on these items were moved, seconded and adopted by voice vote or roll call as read into the public record.
Other approvals on the agenda included a shared service agreement with the Borough of Roselle for an interim tax assessor, authorization to receive department reports, approval of community event requests including the George E. Canon Elks Lodge 'Battle of the Badges' and the St. Demetrius Greek Festival, and acceptance of license applications for local businesses.
The committee concluded the meeting after public comment and adjourned.
