School Budget, Solar Ordinance Top News This Week

It's Monday, the start of another work-week, the end of the weekend, and that can only mean one thing—it's time to look ahead to the week at hand.

It's going to be busy in Bernardsville and Bedminster, and we've got your list of things to look out for, from meetings to school activities and everything in between.

For the second week in a row, school budgets are going to top the week, with Bedminster Township School District introducing its budget Wednesday in advance of the due date for submission to the county superintendent.

Solar panels will also be a topic of discussion when the Bedminster Township Committee introduces its ordinance concerning defining solar panel construction throughout the township.
