A Township Committee Meeting will be held tonight, Monday, April 8 at 7:30 p.m. at Municipal Building (1 Municipal Drive).
Hydrant Flushing begins TOMORROW, April 8, and continues through Thursday, April 11 in the southern parts of the Township.
Reminder: Your water may be rusty or brown after the flush, therefore, do not run your washing machine or dishwasher. If you can bypass your RO unit or the house water filter, that is a good idea as well. Disable your automatic ice makers. To those of you who keep saltwater fish, please make sure you don't make any saltwater these days if your system is set to auto-tap off. Run your water for a bit after the flush, until the water is clear again. Use cold water first. You should use your tub or laundry sink for the flush as they do not have the screening at the end which can get plugged with debris.
See the attached letter from the City Water Department regarding possible reasons for a higher water bill than normal. If you have additional questions, please feel free to call 609-298-0604 for Gina Ficarotta Ext. 4 and Rachel Ivey Ext. 1.

A racoon captured in the vicinity of Locust and Willow Roads in Bordentown Township has tested positive for rabies.
The Burlington County Health Department has identified two animals and one person who may have been exposed to this racoon, and is asking for the public’s cooperation to prevent the spread of rabies:
1.) If you have been scratched or bitten by wildlife, stray cats, or dogs in the vicinity of the indicated neighborhood in the last month, please contact the Burlington County Health Department by calling (609) 265-5548.
2.) Check the status of your pets’ rabies vaccine. If your pet spends time outdoors, or if your pet has not received its latest rabies shot within the last 3 months, the Health Department advises that a rabies booster be administered.
3.) Avoid all wild animals – especially bats, skunks, foxes, cats, and raccoons.
Rabies is a fatal viral disease that affects the brain. The rabies virus lives in the saliva (spit) of infected animals and is spread from a bite or when saliva from an infected animal touches broken skin, open wounds or the lining of the mouth, nose, or eyes.
Rabies in certain animals – especially wildlife – is common in New Jersey.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Burlington County Health Department at 609-265-5548.

Wishing everyone a Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀
Mayor Fuzy honored the late Mayor Steve Benowitz with a proclamation for his dedication and service to the Township. The Township Committee was thankful that Steve's family came to the meeting to honor Steve.
Mayor Fuzy dedicated the moment of silence to all the people that we thought had so many tomorrows, but leave voids in our lives. May our fond memories of them always bring us joy.
