Toms River Town Hall Closed After Burst Pipe Causes Widespread Flooding
Toms River Town Hall will be closed for at least the next two days, and possibly longer, due to significant flooding caused by a burst pipe, township officials announced.
The flooding impacted all three floors of the municipal building, prompting an immediate shutdown while cleanup and repairs are underway. A professional cleanup contractor is already on site addressing the damage, and the building will remain closed until it is deemed safe for employees and the public.
Despite the closure of Town Hall offices, inspections will continue as scheduled for the Building, Zoning, Engineering, and Code Enforcement departments.
As a result of the closure, the Township Council meeting scheduled for Wednesday has been canceled.
Officials said further updates will be provided as more information becomes available and as the situation develops.
