April 2, 2018 Middletown Township Committee Meeting


There was a Middletown Township Committee meeting last Monday night, but if you blinked you might have missed it. The open public workshop meeting was all of 13 minutes long, if you had intended to go to the meeting but were running a little late, you would have missed it and been left wondering, "where did everyone go?". It's a good thing that we have  video to prove that a meeting actually took place.

Here are the brief  highlights:

  • Ordinances were adopted to establish a property tax "CAP" bank and to set a fair market value for some property the township wants to either purchase or acquire by eminent domain in Belford.
  • Ordinances were introduced to reissue an ordinance from 2017 authorizing to borrow $3.172M for various projects and the other to allocate $259K to begin funding the construction of the new municipal building.
  • Resolutions were adopted to purchase a truck for DPW, award a contract for GIS services, award a contract to construct a pavilion at Poricy Park and to establish an agreement between the township and the Affordable Housing Alliance to prevent homelessness.

For further information on these, you can access the agenda for the meeting at the link below the video.



As always you can download a copy of the Meeting Agenda that contains the discussion items and the proposed resolutions and ordinances that were voted on or presented during the meeting. A box around an item is a link, bringing you further into the document to that resolution or ordinance. At the end of the resolution there will be a link bringing you back to the agenda. Attached to this agenda is also the monthly bill list, so that everyone can see how the Township is spending our tax dollars.
