Middlebush Sound System Bids Rejected, Volume Specs Too Low

January 14, 2016 Township Council Taxes

1-12-16 Meeting - 15 — Concerns raised by Mayor Phillip Kramer about the volume of proposed speakers at Middlebush Park resulted in the Township Council rejecting submitted bids for the system.

Bids for the planned sound system in Middlebush Park were rejected Jan. 12 by the Township Council because the volume level specifications were found to be too low.

Township Manager Robert Vornlocker said that he brought concerns about the volume, raised by Mayor Phillip Kramer, to Eric Zwerling of Rutgers University, a nationally known sound expert. Zwerling, Vornlocker said, agreed with Kramer’s assessment that the system would not be heard by people in the football fields’ stands.
