CITY COUNCIL MESSAGE

September 4, 2025

As Mayor Desiderio indicated during his report to City Council on August 26, the agenda for that day’s meeting was light, with no ordinances listed.  However, each of the resolutions on the August 26 Consent Agenda was approved, including:

Resolution 154, which authorized the Award of a Contract in the amount of $1,344,967 to Channel Marine Construction, of Clermont, NJ, for improvements to Sea Isle City’s Promenade, as part of our Promenade Preservation / Improvement Project.  This project will include replacing and improving bulkheads at various locations, upgrading several street-end ramps and installing new ADA ramps at 32nd and 40th Street.  Please Note: Money from the State’s Boardwalk Preservation Fund will pay for most of this project. 
  • Resolution 155, which adjusted Resolution 147 and confirmed charges for a roadwork project, allowing a local property owner to pay for improvements to their sidewalk and curbs as part of that project. 
  • Resolution 157, which authorized a State Contract in the amount of $258,913 with W. S. Goff, of Mays Landing, NJ, for the purchase of furniture for Sea Isle City’s future Community Center.
  • Resolution 158, which authorized Sea Isle City’s participation in the Bergen County Cooperative Pricing System, allowing us to purchase goods and services at fair prices that are negotiated in advance, thus keeping Sea Isle City’s costs down due to the process of collective purchasing with other communities.
  • Resolution 159, which authorized City Council to hold a Closed Executive Session for the purpose of discussing contract negotiations with Local 1036: Employees of Public Works Blue Collar, Supervisors of Public Works, Clerical Employees and Confidential Employees. 

During the “Citizen Comment” portion of the August 26 meeting, many residents stepped to the microphone to ask questions about several topics; however, most of those property owners passionately expressed concerns about the proposed 46th Street Water Pump Station. City Council and the city’s Administration always welcome input from the community and we take all comments under advisement.

The next City Council meeting will take place on Tuesday, September 9, at 10:00 AM on the third floor of City Hall – and we hope to see you there!
