Council awarded a contract to Watchguard for the replacement of police vehicle cameras at a cost of $50,655, which is within the budgeted amount.

The Valley Brook Road project has a completion date of early September. Initially, the project was to be completed in July, then the date was moved to August and now September. Michael Silvestri, township manager, said a project update will be included in the next township newsletter. Work will continue through the winter.

Silvestri said he will confer with the contractor to see if portions of Valley Brook Road that sunk several years ago and that are beginning to show additional sinking, could be repaired during the time traffic is significantly reduced during the project.

It was announced that paperwork is complete to begin legal action against the installation of a gate on the private portion of Mt. Blaine Drive. Silvestri said attempts to reach the attorney representing the eight property owners on the private portion of Mt. Blaine were unsuccessful. The gate is not locked, but could delay attempts by the township’s emergency services.

• Next meeting: 7:30 p.m. Jan. 27 at the municipal building
