Yeah, you had asked me. >> It has to be >> rental key. I know that's not >> Thanks for having that later. >> Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
I'm going on spring break. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. We're going away next month. That's interesting, too. We have circulation. Certainly not. and welcome to the uh bird on Wednesday,
March 25th. At this time, I'll ask for your cell phones uh to be silenced or turned off. And I'll open up the meeting. concerned to the open public meetings law. This is to state for the record that adequate notice of this meeting has been provided
to the public by publication in the Westfield leader in January 2026 posting on the burrow website and by posting and filing of said motus in the office of the municipal clerk. This is a regular scheduled meeting of the board. Um at
this time I'm going to ask for a moment of silence, please. Pledge allegiance to the flag, United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with
all. >> Thank you. >> Mayor Blumentock >> here. Councilwoman Biano >> here. >> Chair Greet. >> Miss Vagio here. >> Steed here. >> Mr. Barkin, >> Miss Haye,

are? to make amendment to that. >> Um, yes, please. Um, but I wasn't showing >> I thought I was on. Sorry. Um, on the uh fourth page, I removed that paragraph. Um, that was
at the last meeting that was inadvertently left there. and and also on the part where we had the uh recommendation to burrow council um I'd like to rem
move uh mrstead's name and put uh recommend that where a subject is silent on a subject the burrow's land use code of
code would control. It's basically the same thing, but I wanted to reflect that it was a recommendation. I'll make a motion to adopt uh as uh yeah adopt as amended. >> So I hear a second.
>> Second all in f um roll call please. >> Mayor Blumentock >> I Councilwoman Biano >> I chair Gre >> C. Yes. >> Um Miss Vagio. >> Mr. Mirstead Mr. Barkin.
Uh, Miss Haye, Mr. McCarrick, Mr. Buyers, >> Mr. Mason, Mr. Di Maria, and Mr. Biano.
>> Okay. Thank you. Motion to accept the minutes as amended. Okay. At this time, we'll open up to a public hearing for the circulation element um of the master plan prepared by Harbor Consultants.
>> Okay. >> Good evening everybody. Um so tonight is the public hearing for the circulation plan. Uh this has been um been months uh preparing since the end of uh 2025
to to now. Um, so the last planning board meeting, well, the two planning board meetings on the 25th was a public it wasn't, it was a public hearing for the public to address any comments from the board to mention any comments as
well related to the circulation plan with the notion that the plan is scheduled to be adopted tonight. Um, so with those comments from the board and from the public, I made uh several edits
to the plan. Uh, specifically, um, there was a comment regarding Myrtle Avenue going to Westfield that was removed. I added additional language to to emphasize creating synergy between
Garwood and Westfield to create better circulation connectivity. uh agro language related to Union County's uh 2016 transportation plan which also mentioned that Garwood's trans train station was not modernized.
So noted that for the record. Uh made a comment related to monitoring cutthrough traffic related related to overflow traffic on North and South Avenue. Uh added language that uh no churn red signs are properly placed in proper
locations. So vehicles can see those signs. Uh made a comment related to enforcement and insurance that uh all developments provide their required parking as per the site plan approval
and also changed the wording related to the the payment in le of parking. Uh made it a comment that the town the bureau shall discuss and and determine if that is something to move forward. Uh so those that's the overview of the
comments uh related from the last planning board meet uh two planning board meetings ago sorry um and updating the plan. So I believe there are some additional comments from the board um
that if if the board members want to you know make those comments Don defer me but I think they could be the plan could be adopted subject to additional comments. >> I would agree with that Mr. Chairman and
actually I have one comment. I have a question. >> Okay. Right. In the executive summary, it says that Garwood is the smallest municipality by land area in Union County. What about Winfield Park? >> Is that tech? Is it a technically municipality? >> Yep, it is.
>> Yeah. Okay. Okay. I think Gard is second. >> All right. One. Okay. All right. >> It left it left off the first page at me. So I was still reading when I was on the first page.
>> It didn't catch you, but I gave you different right. >> There's this thing called Google. >> Okay, I will update that. Any other additional comments? >> Claria.
>> Yes. Um I'd like to recommend a some additional information be provided in section 2.9 in the transit section on page 26. Uh the information regarding the buses only addresses the local bus. There is
also a 113 express bus which operates to New York City during peak rush hour. Um, this rush hour schedule includes from 5:00 a.m. to 8:30 in the morning and then also returning westward back in the evening from 4 to 9:30 and the buses
stop every 15 to 20 minutes along North Avenue. So, that helps tremendously with the commute into the city. Um, in addition, the train schedule has been improved significantly during rush hour. The trains typically now are running every
20 to 30 minutes into um Penn Station, Newark during peak rush hour and the same returning home in the evening and non- peak hours are typically every hour. >> There also I believe significantly more boardings than are included.
>> There also I think are significantly more weekly boardings that are reported. I don't know the number, but um it's >> there's quite a bit of commuters and traffic going in, pedestrian traffic.
>> And those comments were uh circulated uh prior to tonight's meeting. Correct. >> Not the entire board. Okay. >> Well, what section is that? It's page 26. >> 2.9 transit >> because 2.9 it does talk about 59,
>> right? But not the 113 express. It only talks about the local, which is a big difference for >> Yeah. The 113X is the big one. >> Yeah. >> That's the big one. >> Yeah. >> Another service.
That's where four times in the morning. It's private. It's private express, >> but service. >> Okay. >> They have a a bus >> bus car. >> Yeah, but it's a private >> No, I know. But I didn't know they do buses. >> Mhm.
>> So, I know there stops at Cranford, but I didn't know there was a car, too. >> I'm sorry to do this, but maybe you can move that that mic over so we can hear you because it's a little difficult. >> It's quite >> That's good.
on screen so we should clarify what you were saying. >> Sure. I was saying that there's also box car bus service which stops in in Gorewood and is it is a private service not a public service but it is also commuting to and from New York City. >> Yeah. Thank you.
>> Good. Steve Park something. >> Yeah, I know he does. >> Steve. >> Yeah, I went through this today. Uh, Steve, I'm going to ask you to really concentrate on moving to the mic, too. >> Yep. I turned it on, Bar. >> Yeah. >> Uh, had a few comments.
Uh, I don't think it's immediately apparent where the public parking is. I read in here that we share the public can park at Vermela. I think it's Vermela 2. >> Mhm. >> But I I I didn't know that >> it's too. Yeah. So, my thought is to
encourage some signage to give people some direction action. >> There is >> there's supposed to be signage there. Yes. >> Signage that says uh shared parking BLA and the Burrow of Garwood at on those spots that >> are the ones.
>> Yeah. >> Maybe you need it on the street. I'm just saying so people know cuz I >> There isn't one facing out. I thought there was >> I think there is. I think I saw see it.
>> To be honest with you, it was a kind of um an ugly night when I came, but uh the the last um council meeting I came to, it was raining and I was looking for a parking space because we were crowded out here. So, I uh I went to that. I I
honestly didn't didn't see any signs outwardly that would indicated that, you know, there was public parkable available there. I knew it was. So >> you think >> there there are signs almost. So it's the parking stalls that are adjacent to the fire.
>> Yes. >> And there are signs at all. >> I have just listed that. >> It says shared parking and it's limited hours that you can park there and you can only park for three hours. >> I guess they're asking for one like at the entrance. Yeah. So that people would
know maybe on that side. We can ask for Mela to do that. >> Yeah. Yeah, that'd be good. >> Yeah. And maybe maybe what I'm feeling is that you might maybe a master sign with information as to
uh the options. Now the one you can park here. There are some spaces available and you can park up center street and th those are very visible. But I I looked today for the one on Myrtle. I couldn't find it. And I I mean
I live close enough to walk so sometimes I walk here. I don't need parking like a lot of people do but my overall sense is that it it's not really well said that I don't think that has to be a
change per se to this to the circulation plan but I think it's something to annotate and note and maybe highlight that that's a that's um could be improved upon. >> Okay. and some of these and they're not
lengthy, but maybe this is not the right place, but I' I've been in a parking lot in Westfield lately. It's it's where the food pantry is. There was there's a building down 525 that was refurbished
and there's a parking lot and cars park on the street literally up to the edge of the driveway. You can't see anything. You have no idea that traffic is coming out. And so when I'm leaving there, next time I go, I'm
not going into that lot. Find a street space. But you inch out and you inch out until finally somebody figures it out and stops. And so maybe, and again, this might not be the place for it. We need a regulation
that offsets parking from the edges of driveways. >> So safety point of view, >> we do have that in the code. Um, and I do think that that is part of some of the recommendations that we're looking at um taking a a townwide look at the
intersections um the for lack of a better word the yellow lines um from the edge of the intersection. >> Yeah, that was that that was mentioned in in the plan. >> Okay, just one or two more. Um, I was driving in Westfield and I there
was I came up to a stop sign just like a week ago and I obviously I stopped, but it turns out there's a white line in the road. I never really thought about this that I passed getting me too close to the corner and a person came and turned left and I was
sure was going to hit me. I still can't believe she didn't. And I started to honk and she didn't even see me and she was going too fast. But then at the last minute she saw me and miraculously she was able to stop in time. If I had stopped behind that white
line, it wouldn't have been any issue. >> So you're saying the stopped sign should have been brought >> further back. >> Further back. >> Yeah. >> And again, I don't know if this is the place for that, but >> doesn't mean the same place >> or just a >> like you mentioned that was in
Westfield. Is that the case here in Garwood? I I haven't driven around to look, but I don't know. But if it is, that's an issue that I never thought about before experiencing that situation.
I think that that is something that um the mayor and and uh council and the chief of police can look at. >> Okay. And the last one was
page 45. Drawings of uh speed bumps up or humps and there are six and I really hope they don't build that or anything like it. I mean I go down
Benson Place in Westfield which becomes fourth and turn right on Maple and there are speed I call them bumps there which work fine you know people really do slow down but this kind
of a design for a speed bump strikes me we're here >> I think it's 48 about 48 >> 48 >> 48 >> we >> Yeah that was a bicycle Rumble strips. >> Yeah. Dville. >> Rumble strips.
>> Oh, rumble strips. Yeah, >> we have those. >> We have some. >> Yeah. >> Well, in my in my copy of this, it's it's this drawing. >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> That's 40 page 48 copy. >> Some of them, some people don't. It's
like one of those things. >> The design thing that I uh hope is not implemented. I I I do have some some um some not an addition but just a highlight of your plan and I I appreciate uh the fact that
you did highlight the um areas where there were no sidewalks >> and I think from my perspective and after the council meeting uh finding out that there are grant there's some grant money that's uh that's involved that may
help us out with getting sidewalks into areas that we don't have sidewalks. Um, I think that's something that we should really highlight and become very aware and I can from my own standpoint. I
mean, Brookside Police is one particular one that that has my attention, but there are several others throughout the uh throughout the the burrow that really >> need to be looked at. Fourth Avenue. Yeah, >> I mean Yeah, Mr. Chairman. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, with with this
circulation plan, this provides a roadmap, but I'm always looking for grants, you know, and and anything out there, I'll I'll send it to the mayor. And >> please do the obviously that's the the rare issue is the money.
>> You have used DOT money. Um we will be installing south uh sidewalks on South Avenue so that we'll have continuous uh sidewalks along there. Um that project was put in that's you know away. But at
the last council meeting we also um Mr. Disco gave us a uh a map of where we are sidewalkless and um the council and you know the committees are going to be looking at prioritizing which areas um
what was the big priority uh number one that they're looking at is Oak Street along the rec complex >> um as that's a very you know traveled area for the kids with the summertime especially um so I know the public works committee is actually investigating that
now. Um, and then hopefully we will be able to put it into some sort of grant project and hopefully start to prioritize other areas as well. Thank you. >> I have a question. Um, the report identifies potential funding
opportunities and a lot of it's geared towards, you know, roadway safety kind of stuff. um identified a report and as we know there are drainage issues in the town. Um I was wondering if uh
it did or was any looking at uh potential funding opportunities for addressing drainage issues that could be identified >> uh in terms of circulation. Um
I don't know if that readily applies for the just Yeah. It doesn't it's not in the report because it's really not about circulation, >> right? Talk I'll talk to you about some things that council is doing. >> Okay. This year hopefully if you we're still in the budget process, but once
that finished I I know there's the intent to do some things with with drainage and source studies. So, but then funding will be the issue after that. So if you find any again, >> I just want to I guess reiterate what Gabe said earlier. Um I had given him
this page of changes and I went on today to make sure that uh to see if the changes were addressed and I said to him I got lost and I think what Steve said earlier but I was making up the page on page 28 26 right now. That's funny. I'm
looking at electric vehicles. It was actually on page 34 and when I read it was on page 29. Now I know why I got lost and I couldn't find stuff. But just electric vehicles. Can we just make a note? So So two things. One, I would also like well we can adopt this just I
would like to go with what what I recommend if you gave just to see if it all got got addressed somehow. Not to my life if it got addressed. Um uh as far as electric vehicles, it's all well and good to say who they are and what we have. None of them are public.
So we can just make a note that electric vehicle charging stations that we have are actually all private. So there were no public EV station in town. That's something we should try to get.
Okay. And discussion points. You say private, is it only used by a certain private group or is it just produced or provided by a private group that anyone produce?
>> No, it's like these ones that rella that are used to where the best. Okay. Um at this time I open for public comment on this particular application. Good evening chair Greekland gentleman
of the board Bruce Patterson 325 Will Avenue. Uh just a couple of simple questions. Not sure if it's it also should be included, but there is that retail parking underneath one. I think there's like spots or something like that
referenced in the uh circulation. >> Also, uh yeah, resident a senior, he couldn't make it tonight, but he was talking about center lines on the uh back roads. I don't know if you call tertiary roads, you know, Willow Avenue, Myrtle Avenue.
He was saying it'd be great to have center lines there for the seniors to drive down. So, I don't know if I I should be addressing you or addressing the council. >> We'll address it here. We'll carry over with council >> if that should be part of the circulation plan.
>> Okay. >> Your recommendation. >> Sure. And uh ju just lastly I harbor harbor you're hired by the council right the mayor council's body. Oh okay but you're here you're in the planning board.
>> Well it was an RFP for a circulation plan. >> Harbor consultants submitted responded to the RFP and the burrow made a decision. So that's how we were >> Yeah. The question is, are you working for the planning board or
working for the c the governing body? >> Well, it's it's a planning board document. Um, so, uh, but it's going to be endorsed by the council, but it's a planning board document. Um, so in this essence, we're working for the planning board. >> Yeah. I was just wondering about the
process. It seemed to be confusing a little bit, but I appreciate you. >> Thank you. Okay. Thank you, Bruce. Anybody else? >> Okay. Laura Thompson, 320 Pine. I'm sorry I missed the beginning. I was kind of running late. Um, there are a couple
things that were incorrect in here. The Washington School site is labeled as a YMCA. >> Uh, 33 on that copy that I have. If I'm not mistaken, the YMCA is no longer in that building.
I'm not exactly sure of what's going on with that building. >> You reference what? This is different. >> It's a map. >> Uh map 11 >> 11. It's also in the um the It's also in the uh
the actual document listing it as the YMCA. >> I removed the YMCA. >> Okay. Um Lincoln Elementary School Little Spring Learning Center. Can somebody tell me where that's at?
>> That would be cool. >> No. What page are you using? >> It's the map 11. >> It's the page before that. It's written. >> No, 34. 34. >> So, it's in it must be in the map is from a while ago there. That is the um
RC kids. So, it used to be called that. >> This map this map is clearly labeled. It's coming from Union counties. >> Yes. This this we didn't even prepare this map. This the uh this Yeah, this came directly from Union County. >> Um
the uh traffic study, when was that supposed to be done? Weren't we going to do another traffic study >> for what? >> For for the circulation plan. Yeah. >> No, there was no traffic study related
to the circulation plan. >> Oh. Hang on just a second. Oh, well, I've got this page. Um, map number six lists the places that you've already put the signals for um crosswalks.
Uh, my personal opinion is you need one at Myrtle and East. You also need one on the corner of Beach and Center. And at Pine and uh East,
the kids are walking back from the rec center. They need to be able to cross the streets over there and East Street has become very busy. >> Okay. Well, Gabe, um, I feel like when we did when you did the recommendations, and I I'd have to go try and find them
now, but the recommendations are basically the guidelines saying should look for various other intersections where they might >> turn these, >> right? So I I mean, >> yeah, >> we could go through and list like everything, but I think like
>> that would be the council's the public works committee would then start to look at all the different intersections and make decisions. But the guideline is to basically look at which look at all of the intersections and make determinations.
>> And the plan says you the the burrow is not stopping with these intersections. They're going to look at always more opportunities. Uh so you know that that is you the guiding principle of this plan that look for more opportunities to improve pedestrian
uh safety and and circulation. >> So I guess like as a resident if you wanted to put um you know email over recommendations for the council and public works committee and they they could take a look. >> The map is still correct. a map of
what's out there existing. Um I'm in the recommendation um I'm pretty sure there is Thank you. I'm sorry. Pretty sure there is one there. um about, you know, continuing to look at
uh at intersections. Consider um >> anyway, they're they're in they're in around page 41. It's the pedestrian mobility recommendations. Yeah. Identify additional intersections to install pedestrian beacons to improve pedestrian safety.
>> Which number is that? >> Number 11 on page 4. >> There you go. There you go. Yes. So, yes, that is in there. Okay. >> Yeah. >> And also you number 10. Identify intersections for high foot traffic as additional locations for push activated blink and light vehicles such as North
Avenue connecting to Rita's Italian ice and frozen custard >> which is open. I know. >> Um, on page 42, you're talking about the bike lanes. Um, they're talking about Myrtle Avenue
extending into Westfield. >> I removed that. >> Okay. Um, well, hang on a sec. >> Yeah. >> Lab doesn't go through. >> Yes, it does. On a pedestrian or a bicycle, it does. >> Does it actually have a path? Because it did.
>> Well, these these are recommendations. So, I was I was the one. No, no, you you go right across. You're right. I've done it. Doesn't It's dirt. No, because that's actually one of my recommendations because we're trying to link different towns with um uh
continuation of pedestrian >> and so um mean you can go at the end of Union Union, you go across over the bridge there and you went to Westville and I'd love to see if we can make that official. And yes, you can go across Gon Myrtle, you go across the bridge or the,
you know, culvert and you're in Westfield. So the recommendation is that you know something be made official. It's not. >> Okay. >> It's dirt, >> but I biked it many times. >> Okay. >> Can't find a
>> Now I'm confused because now um didn't Gabe say in the beginning when he presented that We removed that ex um >> Westfield that was connection.
>> Yeah. And there's not really a well defined path there. I ride through it all. >> All right. Thank you. >> Yes. >> Sorry. That's okay. Um, does anybody know if there is going to be access to the new construction that
is technically in Westfield but literally sits in the backyards of the people on Willow? >> We had talked about that. Do you remember Mayor? >> We had talked about um discussing it with the developer so it wasn't a dead
end so that there would be a connection. Um I don't know. >> Open it up. >> No, again pedestrian, >> but this board has some >> I believe the resident was in the process with the developer. They were
taking it on themselves to >> talk with them about >> talk about pedestrian never be >> because it's private property right there. >> Yeah. I I just would feel bad for the people on that road if the residents would be able to access that through our streets. Well, they can't
>> because that would increase the traffic on what was essentially a dead end. >> You can't vehicularly. No. Okay. Well, right now there's a fence. You can't tell what they're going to do is my point. >> Is there a program? >> There is no no particular access.
>> All right. Um the um list of pedestrian and bicycle accidents. Do we have any data that says how these accidents? It's uh 2-2.4 map number three. It tells us where the
accidents were, but it doesn't tell us if these were car versus pedestrian, cycle versus car, car, somebody in their bicycle running a person over. Doesn't tell us what exactly happened. All it tells us is there was an accident. So these could be motor vehicle involved. Also,
>> are you talking about map number four? >> Map number three. >> Three. One is there's a map 4 is vehicular. >> Yeah, map is free pedestrian bicycle. >> But if you're on a bike, you get hit by a car. Is it now a motor vehicle
accident or is it car a bike bike accident or is it both? >> I think it's considered pedestrian if there is one. Right. >> I don't think the these to my uh reflection. These these are related to motor motor vehicles
>> versus a a bike or >> Yeah. impacting pedestrian in the bike. >> And since the data on that is 2017 to 2025, why is the data for motor vehicle only a two-year data? Why did we only get two days worth years worth of data?
There there was um the police department had uh transitioned to another um uh database system and their availability for the data was limited for certain number of years. So they
provided >> way to get that >> they provided from what they available they provided me that data. >> Okay. Map number five shows the flooding in town and uh it's not exactly accurate.
>> That's from the flood hazard. This this you know this is from flood hazard uh mapping directly from FEMA. So is it 100% accurate? No. But but this is >> from actual data sources. Okay. >> From FEMA. Well, FEMA needs to come
visit during a storm to see where it is because this is not I mean South Avenue floods over by Vermela now. North Avenue floods over past Winslow. So, you know, FEMA bases it upon
topographic mapping. And so so FEMA um they b they base their maps upon topographic mapping and myrtle and the other street they don't flood based upon uh topography. They flood based upon the
water backing up from the brook. So FEMA isn't necessarily going to have the locations of every manhole that gets pushed back by the brook. Their their maps are are based on elevation. That's why many times they don't reflect
reality. But I'm assuming Gabe that's uh the most recent FEMA map for the area. >> Correct. So that's that's not the same thing with but >> everywhere >> anywhere with the >> Yeah. And and and they're also many times not current. They're uh
a little outdated. Um, it's page 12 on mine, but it's uh two 2.3 existing traffic volumes. Doesn't state what year this was done. Is this
current traffic volumes or is this from three years ago? >> That's current. That's from the >> It should really reflect that. Um, you already addressed the commuter parking. Um, I don't believe there is
signage uh over by Vermela to designate that there is parking there. I was unaware until recently also. Um, another comment, and I I know that you're trying to make everybody safe, but and I love the having the
signal crossings for where the children are walking um on a daily basis or on a more common time frame. But driving down Center Street, and this is just my opinion,
it's a streak of yellow things. You look down the street and it's all yellow signs. It's almost sensory overload at this point. You put so many yellow signs that people don't pay attention anymore. And the blinking lights are wonderful as
long as there it's not a dark corner because if it's a dark corner now the blinking light is shining at me and I can't see if there's a person there anymore. I can't see if they're coming because the light is shining in my face. I I sometimes think it's more of a
distraction than anything else. Um and the township and this is something that I'm going to see if I can work on myself. um needs to come up with a education plan for people who are walking at night to wear something other than black because everybody runs around
in a dark color jacket walking at night and that contributes to the amount of people we get hit around here. And I think that's the last of me. Thank you for listening. >> Okay. Thank you. Those were positive
comments and some respects. Thank you. from public. Um any discussion board members seeing none um to to
accept it. I'll make a motion and second to adopt the circulation plan and add it to the master plan. >> Do we have a second? >> Second. >> You could recommend the adoption by >> No, no, no.
>> We're council has no role, >> right? We're adopting it, but is that subject to the comments and edits that were made this even? >> Yes. subject to the addition of any recommendation that was made by this
board today. Mayor Blumentock I, >> Councilwoman Biano, >> I, >> Miss Veagio, >> I, >> Mr. Neareststead, >> I, >> Mr. Barkin, >> I, >> Miss Haye,
>> Mr. McCarrick, >> Mr. buyers and chair greet >> I. >> Motion carries. >> Okay. Thank you. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Appreciate it.
>> You've done great. It came out to be a good product. Very good product. So, we appreciate it. >> Of course. Thank you. Thank you everyone involved. >> Thanks. >> Okay. Um do we have any further business here? Um, I was going to have the
ordinance >> for the food truck, >> but it's being looked at by the health department. At this point, I think it should be okay. But if anybody read it um um um
um Adele sent it out to everyone, um is there any comments before I get any comments back from the health department? Not yet. I just want to take another look though. >> Okay. Okay. Um if you could let me know
if there's any anything else um so I can have it for the April meeting. >> Okay. >> Thank you. >> Very good. Um we have nos and claims at this point in time. Are you
>> Yes, we do have a very Yes. >> You already told me you sucked. I I I I I signed it, so we're we're good. But it's uh it's for um Fraser
Don's um ongoing presence and contribution to the board. Um March 11th and March 25th for a total of $2,50. Do I get a motion? I'll >> make the motion. >> Second. Second. In
>> favor. Motion carries. Don Don, what's going on? You're current. Like, what's going on? Aren't you usually wait till September? >> It's Bill. I'm just turning over a new leaf. >> Yeah, I know that.
>> Okay. Not mandatory. >> This is a good evening, chair group. Ladies and gentlemen, the board, Bruce Patterson, 325 Willow Avenue. And I just want to thank Harbor Consultants uh for the effort that he put in for the uh
circulation plan. Uh initially we had money in the budget on the governing body side and and uh I guess the bids came in and they were well over it, but Harbor Consultants on the second bid actually came and met the budget number. So they went out of their way to meet
the price point of Garwood and they also put in a lot of effort in into these multiple pages of the circulation plan. So I just want to say thank you very much harbor consultants. >> Thank you Bruce. >> That's appreciated. Thank you Bruce and thank you again. Okay
at this point in time motion to adjourn. >> I'll make that motion. I'll second. Thank you very much.
