Hey Ian that’s cool, I didn’t know this service was available.
Would you consider proxying the New Jersey high res orthos too from 2012-2013?
More info: 
https://njgin.state.nj.us/NJ_NJGINExplorer/jviewer.jsp?pg=2012_OrthoImagery

Metadata for this layer is here:
https://njgin.state.nj.us/NJ_NJGINExplorer/ShowMetadata.jsp?docId={DF49386A-73AC-4A1A-B6DC-13B769E176A4}
(their page indicates that there are no constraints on access or use, though a 
source acknowledgment is appreciated)

Their WMS server is here:
