Mayor Shing-Fu Hsueh has announced a grand re-opening of the township’s senior center, which is scheduled for noon on Wednesday, September 30. A tour of the new facility will also be held.
The first phase of construction included renovations to the existing building, five additional classroom or meeting rooms, bathrooms, and more storage space.
The $1.185 million contract for the first phase was awarded to Tri-Form Construction Inc. of Metuchen in June, 2008, for the first phase. A $500,000 grant from the county, through County Executive Brian Hughes; a $100,000 grant through Assemblywoman Linda Greenstein; and $50,000 from the state Department of Community Affairs helped fund the project, with the rest coming from township funding.
