PETERSBURG – Upper Township Engineer Paul Dietrich informed Committee members at their April 6 meeting that the initiative to install digital signage, in Strathmere, was ready to be implemented.
Committee passed a resolution at the meeting for the purchase of the signage, totaling $14,000. Funding will come from the township’s 2019 capital improvement bond ordinance and the 2020 emergency management operating expenses budgetary line.

“Upper’s system will be automatic, unlike Sea Isle’s, which is manually initiated,” explained Dietrich.
