City officials and local partners gathered earlier this week for the annual Point-In-Time count, a coordinated effort to better understand homelessness in Trenton. The early-morning count, held Wednesday at a Perry Street location, is part of a statewide snapshot used to guide funding and support services.

Organizers emphasized that the data helps shape shelter capacity, outreach programs, and long-term housing strategies. Results are expected later this year after statewide totals are compiled.

Major Water Infrastructure Investments Continue

The city is also moving forward with a long-range capital improvement plan focused on water and sewer systems. The plan outlines hundreds of millions of dollars in upgrades over the next decade, including lead service line replacements, new storage tanks, and pumping improvements.

Officials say the work is aimed at improving reliability, meeting safety standards, and reducing disruptions during heavy rain or peak usage. While most projects are phased over several years, some preliminary work is already underway.

Public Works Shares Service Reminders

Residents are being reminded to report missed trash or recycling pickups, illegal dumping, and graffiti through city hotlines. Public Works crews continue routine street cleaning and property maintenance coordination, especially in areas with ongoing construction or winter wear.

City staff encourage residents to use official reporting channels so issues can be logged and addressed more quickly.

Looking Ahead

With infrastructure planning and social services both in focus this week, city leaders say the goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes. More updates are expected following upcoming council and agency meetings.
