# Monroe Township Council Meeting - 11/4/2026

Monroe Township Council regular meeting, November 4, 2026: The council considered consent-agenda resolutions R12026188–R12026203 and approved payment of claims; the transcript does not clearly capture the consent agenda’s final vote. Procurement discussions included the Heritage Chase paving project, whose low bid was reported at $744,000 against an engineering estimate of about $1 million with alternates. The township expects to borrow roughly $300,000 less than originally anticipated for the project. A resolution concerning water laboratory testing was discussed as accepting Garden State Laboratories’ bid. Officials also reported that a construction contract had been awarded for new PFAS treatment facilities at wells 17 and 19, with a pre-construction meeting planned for the second week of November. The council was told that a public-safety grant application would not fund Flock cameras; separate state-appropriated funds expected in 2027 will be administered through the DCA. No specific vendor was identified for the paving or PFAS construction contracts.

Other capital and service updates included planned completion by year-end of ADA-compliant electronic restroom doors at the senior center, ongoing design of a parking lot, and repairs to the recreation-center hockey rink. The Prospect Plains–Applegarth intersection project, sponsored by the county, remains delayed by utility relocations and will require winter stabilization; remaining 2026 paving was expected to proceed in December. Public comment also raised concerns about the council agenda not appearing on the website and requested action on a proposed sanctuary-city resolution and the status of a private road. The council’s attorney discussed public-records access and meeting-notice requirements.
