Because of the Covid public health emergency, we have been holding Commissison and Caucus meetings virtually via Zoom. Meetings will return to in-person meetings at Borough Hall as of the August 5 Commission meeting. The June 22 Caucus meeting will be a Zoom meeting. The public can participate virtually via Zoom. The meeting will begin at 3:00pm. For details on how to access the meeting via Zoom, email the Clerk at boroclerk@mountephraim-nj.com or call 856-931-1546, ext. 201. The agenda items will be posted to the website 24 hours prior to the meeting. Please be aware that the public will be muted until the open public portion of the meeting. When the public portion has been opened, anyone who wants to speak can click on the “raise hand” feature in Zoom or can just wave at the camera and you will be unmuted. Please state your name for the record. Public comments are limited to five minutes in the aggregate per person. Questions can also be emailed to the Clerk in advance and will be read into the record during the open public portion.
The June 3 Commission meeting will include a public hearing on the following ordinances: Ord. 2021-06, Ordinance Appropriating $25,000 from the Capital Fund Balance for Additional Costs Associated with the Cleveland Avenue Area Environmental Project; and Ord. 2021-07, Ordinance to Amend the Borough Code to Create New Chapter 86 Entitled Cannabis, Cannabis Products and Cannabis Related Businesses to Prohibit the Operation of any Class of Cannabis Businesses within its Geographical Boundaries (this ordinance is being adopted to give the Governing Body more time to look at the entire cannabis situation so a plan of what facilities to allow and where to allow them to be located can be determined). Full copies of the ordinances are included in the May 6, 2021 Agenda items below.
