Mayor Gregory Buontempo and the Township Committee presented Committeewoman Weber with a proclamation recognizing her service as well as the key to the township at the June 14 Township Committee meeting, according to a post on the township's Facebook site. Weber thanked the volunteers of the Holmdel community as well as the township staff and police department.
