THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Bloomfield Borough adopted a detailed schedule of attorney fees for handling municipal claims and liens under the Municipal Claims Act. The resolution also authorizes charging a wide range of out-of-pocket costs like title searches, VIN searches, skip tracing, investigatory services, and payment processing fees.

What it means for vendors

This is a standing framework rather than a one-time purchase, and no specific law firm or vendor is named. It signals ongoing demand for collections support, investigation, and payment processing tools tied to delinquent accounts and liens.

Background

Resolution governs fee recovery for municipal claims and liens and implicitly supports continued use or selection of legal, collections, and payment processing services.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
