4. Mayor Mironov and Council Members Acquired an Additional Open Space Property on Disbrow Hill Road. As part of Mayor and Council’s ongoing commitment to preserving open space within East Windsor, the Township has acquired a 3.64 acre property on Disbrow Hill Road, bordered on two sides by approximately 150 acres of Township-owned preserved open space. This expands the assemblage of open space helping to maintain the rural character in this area of the Township. The purchase price of $84,000 was underwritten by New Jersey Green Acres and Mercer County Open Space grants, and no local property taxpayer monies were used in this purchase.
