The Middlesex County Commissioners held a meeting on June 5, 2025, focusing on community issues and safety initiatives. The meeting began with a warm welcome to attendees and a call for all commissioners to join in the discussions.

For further details, residents are encouraged to contact the Office of Aging and Disabled Services.
Additionally, Commissioner Charles Kenny addressed public safety concerns regarding ongoing roadwork in the county. He urged residents to exercise caution while traveling near construction crews, emphasizing the importance of slowing down and avoiding distractions to ensure the safety of both workers and drivers.
The meeting concluded with a commitment to community awareness and safety, reflecting the commissioners' dedication to addressing critical issues affecting Middlesex County residents.
