Council introduces $62 million budget, adopts four ordinances
Township Council · Meeting of April 28, 2026
NJ JACKSON — Jackson Council introduces $62 million 2026 budget with zero municipal tax increase despite appropriations rising from $58.5 million to $62 million. The Council advanced the budget on a 3-2 vote, with Councilmen Nino Borrelli and Christopher Pollak opposing, citing concerns over spending increases and surplus fund reliance to balance the budget. Extraordinary snow removal expenses exceeding $3 million and rising healthcare costs drove the appropriations increase.
The Council also adopted three ordinances addressing parking restrictions, green committee procedures, and temporary occupancy fees, and advanced first-reading ordinances on speed limits and budget cap banking.
