Here's what’s new regarding the borough's website:

  • Consistent Meeting Links: To reduce confusion, each meeting now has a dedicated link that will remain the same through September (until Committees return from the August hiatus).
  • Centralized Meeting Repository: You’ll notice a new image on the upper left of the Borough website homepage (shown below). Meeting links are shown below this image. Clicking the appropriate ink for the meeting you would like to attend will take you directly to the virtual meeting when it is in session.
  • Streamlined Agendas: You can find the direct meeting link right at the top of each agenda page. Agendas are typically posted the Friday before a meeting.
  • Integrated Event Calendar: Every meeting is advertised on our Event Calendar. From there, you can access the meeting link, the official agenda, and all associated documents.
  • Agenda & Minutes Page: All meeting materials continue to be available in the Agenda & Minutes section for your convenience.
