The first ordinance will, if adopted, appropriate $194,477 in grant funding from the New Jersey Green Acres program and $300,000 from Marlboro’s capital surplus account for improvements to athletic fields at the municipal complex.

According to the ordinance, officials want to construct an artificial turf field in place of a natural turf field. In 2013, officials authorized improvements to the field’s irrigation system, however, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection’s Water Allocation Bureau would not consider plans to improve the irrigation system.

The second ordinance, if adopted, will appropriate a $250,000 grant for the preservation of open space in Marlboro, specifically to help the township fund the acquisition of the Stattel farm property on Route 520.

The third ordinance, if adopted, will adjust the salary range for various township employees and officers. The ordinance will increase the maximum salary for a number of municipal employees and establish a salary range for the position of director of community development.

The position of director of community development is currently not filled. Municipal officials said the duties of the position have been handled by CME Associates, the firm which provides engineering and planning services for Marlboro.

According to the ordinance, if an individual is hired as the director of community development that person would be paid between $75,000 and $154,000 per year.

The fourth ordinance, if adopted, will finance the acquisition of police cars. According to the ordinance, officials are planning to replace six police vehicles over the next four years and do not plan to spend more than $190,000 in the process.

Members of the public will have the opportunity to comment on the ordinances and to ask questions about the actions the council is planning to take.
