Borough Offices - Closed to the Public

BOROUGH OF OCEANPORT UPDATE INFORMATION

The Borough is in a unique situation being a provider of social and other public services, and therefore must act with an abundance of caution. To that end, in coordination with the Borough Administrator and the Finance and Administration Committee, I am directing that the following actions be taken so as to not unreasonably expose our residents and municipal workforce to the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic:

Effective Monday, March 16, 2020 all municipal buildings and independent emergency service buildings shall be closed to the public until further notice.

This specifically includes:

• Oceanport Borough Hall*
• Oceanport Police Department (except emergency and public safety operations)
• Port Au Peck Fire House (except emergency and public safety operations)
• Oceanport Hook & Ladder (except emergency and public safety operations)
• Oceanport First Aid Building (except emergency & public safety operations)
• Community Center Library
• Blackberry Bay Pavilion
• Oceanport Department of Public Works

 *Oceanport Borough Hall (at 315 East Main Street) will have drop boxes and contact instruction forms located in the front hallway of the building for use by the general public to facilitate document filings, payments, and all other transactions necessary for the Borough and the public to keep the daily business of government moving forward.
