📋 Producer's NotesThe ramp closure item (Interstate 295 southbound Exit 69B to Route 206) lists a start date of June 4th, which predates this issue's July 23rd publication. It appears unchanged/recurring content from the source newsletter. Included as published; recommend verifying current status before airing if closure has since resolved.The Mobile Food Pantry item lists four Monday dates (July 6, 13, 20, 27); the first three had already passed as of this newsletter's July 23rd date. Only July 27th is noted as upcoming in the script.The Police Department's community partnership item originally read "Yesterday" with no absolute date given. The script substitutes "recently" for clarity, since the newsletter provides no specific date.Several general/boilerplate resource links (Mercer County Food Finder, NJ Disability Information Hub, Mercer County Cooling Centers, MCLS Community Events, full ERMA eligibility criteria) were condensed into brief mentions in the audio script to preserve runtime. Full details are preserved below.The Spring & Summer Recreation Programs promo and the food safety infographic contained no newsletter-specific dates or new details beyond general encouragement/tips, so they were summarized briefly rather than read in full.🏘️ Township AnnouncementsItemDateDetailsBulk Waste Collection | Friday, July 31 | Three items max, 50 lbs. each; call Public Works to scheduleI-295 Ramp Closure | Beginning June 4, through August | Exit 69B to Route 206 southbound closed for noise barrier projectMailing Address Update | Ongoing | P.O.
