Freeholders Coming to Howell Next Month

Board will hold meeting at new building

The new Municipal Building will be the site of the second meeting of April for the Monmouth County Board of Chosen Freeholders.

Inmate Labor Program Works on Township Properties

Work was done at Town Hall and Municipal Building this week
