West Deptford Committee Shifting Meeting Scheule

The committee will go to alternate Thursdays later this year.

West Deptford’s township committee will get a bit of breathing room, after they voted unanimously Thursday night to split meetings to alternating weeks starting later this year.

“We realized everything was being crunched in the first part of the month,” Mayor Ray Chintall said of the back-to-back general business and work sessions.

It was something township committee members had talked about starting early this year, Chintall said, and eventually came to a consensus on the idea of moving one of the sessions.
