The Bensalem Township Council held a meeting on February 9, 2026, where several procurement and budget-related matters were discussed and approved. Key items included the acceptance of municipal grant contracts awarded by the Redevelopment Authority (RDA) of Bucks County, such as a $118,900 grant for the Bucks County Police Chiefs Association Records Management System and a $21,150 grant for the Ben Salem EMS Department's Orion program. The council also reviewed and approved multiple escrow releases related to ongoing land development projects within the township, ensuring that funds were released only after satisfactory completion of work and subject to finance department audits. Additionally, a minor land development proposal was tabled to a future meeting to allow the applicant to address outstanding engineering and stormwater management issues. The council approved a resolution amending the township's Act 537 sewage facilities plan for a new land development, confirming sufficient sewage capacity. Overall, the meeting focused on grant acceptance, land development oversight, and financial controls related to township infrastructure and services.
