The Denville Township Council will vote Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2026, on buying six automatic license plate reader cameras for the Denville Police Department, one of several spending items on the 7:30 p.m. regular meeting agenda.
Resolution R-26-182 would award a contract of up to $71,678.28 to CDW Government for six Packetalk ALPR cameras, based on a Sept. 14 quote. Because the purchase runs through a state-approved cooperative contract, public bidding is not required, and the township’s chief financial officer has certified that capital funds are available. The resolution does not say where the cameras would be installed.
The council will also take up financing for the township’s galvanized water main replacement project. Resolution R-26-186 would authorize up to $7.3 million in short-term notes through the New Jersey Infrastructure Bank’s construction financing program, a bridge loan ahead of long-term New Jersey Water Bank financing. We covered an earlier cost change on the water main work in October.
Another resolution, R-26-180, would hire Mott MacDonald for up to $35,000 to handle final design, federal grant administration and bid-period work for a Diamond Spring Road streetscape between Broadway and First Avenue. The concept calls for new curbing, sidewalks and paver strips, tree wells, accessible curb ramps and decorative lighting. The project is tied to the state’s Transportation Alternatives grant program, and the firm expects to finish the design work in 2027.
Two ordinances are up for introduction. Ordinance 25-26 would formally create a Fire Director position for the volunteer fire department starting Jan. 1, 2027, at the department’s request, covering paperwork, reports and required equipment testing. Ordinance 26-26 would set graduated parking fines and ban car jockeying downtown.
The council is also set to release the performance bond on Phase II of the Knuth Field Walking Trail after the township engineer reported the work complete. The full agenda packet is posted on the township’s council agendas and minutes page.
