The storm-repair payment covers substantial cleanup and outfall work following storm damage. The amended budget-cap ordinance would allow up to a 3.5% increase in 2026 final appropriations, totaling $822,981.22, but it was introduced rather than adopted; a public hearing is scheduled for February 17, 2026. The Council also approved a public relations contract at $175 per hour, not to exceed $30,000, while the Township reviews a complaint filed by the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office, Division of Civil Rights.
