HILLSDALE—The Borough Council introduced two ordinances Oct. 12 to authorize nearly $800,000 in bonding for improvements at the borough-owned Stonybrook Swim Club and various capital improvements, including a new DPW dump truck costing almost $200,000.
Neither the mayor nor council commented publicly on the ordinances. Both ordinances will have public hearings at the Nov. 9 council meeting.
While the $450,000 Stonybrook bonding ordinance offered few specific details on improvements, the other $330,000 bonding ordinance specified the various municipal improvements to be acquired or undertaken.
On Oct. 13, Borough Clerk Denise Kohan supplied a detailed list of improvements planned at the swim club. None were listed in the ordinance.
Ordinance 21-16 appropriates the sum of $450,000 for various improvements at Stonybrook Swim Club.
These include: $250,000 for plastering three pools; $40,124 for covers on main and diving pools; $60,000 to replace main pool sand filter; $39,000 to seal coat main parking lot; $10,000 for new pump in competition pool; $9,000 for an outdoor shower; $7,000 for stenner pumps and flow cells; $5,000 for replacement columns; $3,500 for three chlorine pumps; and $3,500 for a sail shade at the competition pool.
Ordinance 21-15 appropriates the sum of $330,000 for improvements, including a $195,000 dump truck for the Department of Public Works; $110,000 for undertaking drainage improvements at various locations; and $25,000 for tire machines for DPW.
