4 issues in public safety with high priority
Superior Officers Association Contract
The Council approved a three-year police supervisors' contract running from January 2027 through the end of 2029, after a brief executive session.
Flock License Plate Camera Surveillance Contract
A resident pressed the council to consider removing the township's 22 Flock license-plate cameras, calling them a privacy danger, and said they'd keep raising the issue. Police Director Niski defended the three-year-old program as key to criminal investigations, stolen-car recovery, and locating missing persons.
Storm response, power outages and utility vulnerability
After severe storms knocked out power across town, residents praised first responders and DPW crews but asked whether the township will review how vulnerable its power lines, trees and internet infrastructure are to future storms.
Dissolution of Keasbey Fire District Number Four
The township is moving to dissolve the Keasbey Fire District and fold it into the Fords Fire District, a process that requires state approval from the Local Finance Board. Keasbey fire officials argue the state's report justifying the change is outdated and doesn't reflect the district's current staffing and capabilities. Residents will have a chance to weigh in at a public hearing on July 14.
