Salaries for non-union personnel of Morris Township will be set by township ordinance on Wednesday, March 21.

The committee, on Wednesday, Feb. 16, introduced the annual ordinance setting salaries for employees not covered by union contracts. It will be considered for final adoption after a public hearing in March.

The salaries cover administrative personnel as well as supervisory personnel in the police, fire, recreation, parks, municipal court and sewer utility departments. It also covers hourly part-time help in some departments.

The committee also awarded a contract to Liberty Construction & Developing, Inc., of Belle Meade, for the installation of a replacement UV disinfection system at the Woodland sewage treatment plant. Township Administrator Timothy Quinn said 10 contractors picked up the bid specifications and eight returned them. Liberty was the lowest responsible bidder.
