As we come to the end of 2021, I want to thank you all for your support, understanding and commitment to our community as we continued to navigate the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic this past year. I am proud of all we have accomplished together, and look forward to moving into the New Year, united with resiliency, determination and hope.

Due to the New Year Holiday, I also want to remind you that all Township municipal buildings will be closed on Friday, December 31. Since the New Year holiday falls on a weekend, there will be no impact to trash, recycling or yard waste collection.

Members of the public will be able to give public comment utilizing the Public Comments section of the meeting through Zoom or by telephone by using the link and phone numbers provided below in this email below and in the calendar section of our website.
