# Lebanon Township Approves School Safety and Salt Purchases

On October 14, 2026, Lebanon Township approved a shared-services agreement with the North Hunterdon-Voorhees Board of Education for a School Resource Officer at Voorhees High School and Class III Special Law Enforcement Officers during the 2026–2027 school year, ending June 30, 2027. The agreement lists $135,422.10 for the SRO and $75,513 for each Class III SLEO. The township also authorized participation in Hunterdon County’s cooperative rock-salt contract, anticipating 2,000 tons from Morton Salt at $84.17 per ton, or approximately $168,340; the purchase request is non-binding. The actions document local demand through a shared-services arrangement and a cooperative purchasing vehicle, but do not announce an open solicitation.

- The school-safety agreement gives local law-enforcement and education procurement stakeholders a concrete example of intergovernmental service coordination and its stated costs for the 2026–2027 school year.
- The salt purchase is associated with County Bid #2026-11 and Hunterdon County’s Cooperative Pricing System. Suppliers and municipal buyers can use the stated quantity and unit price as market context, while recognizing that the township’s request is non-binding.
- No open competition or proposal deadline is identified in the article; businesses should not treat these approvals as active solicitation opportunities.
