Summary
The commissioners approved resolutions numbered 10-16 through 10-68-25 as a consent agenda. Commissioner Sullivan highlighted two shared services actions approved in the meeting: county IT service provision to the Borough of Tenafly and housing juveniles from Gloucester County at Bergen County's juvenile detention center.
The Bergen County Board of Commissioners approved the consent agenda listing Resolutions 10-16 through 10-68-25 by roll call, with six commissioners voting yes.
Commissioner Sullivan later noted in committee reports that the board approved two shared services agreements during the meeting: (1) the county will provide information-technology services to the Borough of Tenafly, and (2) Bergen County will house juveniles from Gloucester County at the Bergen County juvenile detention center. Sullivan said the agreements expand services and generate additional revenue for the county but the transcript did not include the text of the resolutions or financial terms.
Nut graf: The consent agenda consolidated many routine resolutions into a single vote; at least two items approved as part of the meeting were described by a commissioner as shared-services agreements intended to produce operational efficiencies and revenue for the county.
Decisions: The clerk called for a motion to accept the resolutions as a consent agenda; the motion and second were recorded and the roll call showed six yes votes and the consent agenda was approved. The transcript does not show detailed roll-call record for each resolution in the consent list in the excerpt provided.
Ending: Commissioners recorded committee reports and community events after the consent vote; specific implementation steps or financial details for the shared services items were not provided in the transcript excerpt.
