The Hazlet Township Committee has introduced an ordinance appropriating $1.5 million for the renovation of 8th Street Park, located in the West Keansburg section of Hazlet Township. Plans to improve 8th Street Park were initiated in 2021. The vision includes walking paths, a pavilion, benches, landscaping, security, parking and lighting.
The bond ordinance calls for $1.5 million, instead of the 2021 projected cost of $1.2 million, to cover possible inflation.
The public hearing is scheduled for the July 12 meeting at 8 p.m. If approved, the township can move forward with its financing plan to bring enhancements and renovations to the park.
