SAYREVILLE – Sayreville officials are appropriating $1.3 million toward the rehabilitation of the borough’s water system.

On Sept. 9, the Borough Council adopted a bond ordinance that will authorize the appropriation for the rehabilitation of the Duhernal Well, the water supply system in Sayreville. To finance the entirety of the appropriation, the bond ordinance will also authorize the issuance of $1.3 million in bonds or notes of the borough’s water utility.

According to the bond ordinance, the $1.3 million will help finance, as applicable, all construction planning, engineering, design work, preparation of plans and specifications, permits, bid documents, environmental remediation, construction documents, inspection and contract administration and all materials, equipment, accessories and work necessary therefor or incidental thereto.

In other business, the council adopted a bond ordinance that will appropriate $910,700 towards various park improvements in Sayreville and authorize the issuance of $865,000 in bonds or notes to finance part of the appropriation, with $45,700 to cover the remaining costs.

The bond ordinance for the park improvements first appeared before the governing body on July 22 where council members voted to table its introduction.

The previous version of the bond ordinance would have appropriated $750,000 towards the improvements and authorized the issuance of $712,500 in bonds or notes to finance part of the appropriation, with $37,500 to cover the remaining costs. As stated in this version, the improvements were to include, but were not limited to, upgrades to the ball field, surfacing of the Boehmhurst basketball court, replacement of the infield turf at Senior Field, installation of a rubber surface at the soccer complex, and other miscellaneous park improvements.

Council members tabled the earlier version after deciding that other parks in the borough were in more need of improvements than Boehmurst, with specific attention placed on the basketball court at Kennedy Park.

The bond ordinance adopted by the council on Sept. 9 was subsequently amended to state that the work covered by the appropriation would include improvements to Kennedy Park’s basketball court, in addition to the improvements stated in the earlier version of the bond ordinance. With the addition of the Kennedy Park basketball court, the appropriation increased from $750,000 to $910,700.
