Clarification

At the February 22nd Township Committee Meeting, there was a resolution entitled:  Resolution Authorizing the Township of Hillsborough Through the Hillsborough Police Department, to Participate in the Defense Logistics Agency, Law Enforcement Support Enforcement Support Office, 1033 Program to Enable the Hillsborough Police Department to Request and Acquire Excess Department of Defense Equipment.

This resolution is being passed by municipalities and counties statewide, including Somerset County.  This resolution authorizes the Township to participate in a program to acquire equipment such as high water rescue vehicles, to assist our first responders in high water rescue when individuals go around barricades and attempt to drive through high water.   There seems to have been some public confusion regarding this and I wanted to correct any confusion.  Essentially, it is similar to participating in the County surplus sale.  This resolution is required to even view the list of equipment and supplies available.  Any further questions can be sent in to the This email address is being protected from spambots.
