MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR
Friday November 4 As of 5:00 pm Friday, JCP&L reports 54 customers without power. Most of them should have power restored tonight. As of 8:00 pm Friday, PSE&G has 150 customers without power, and they expect most of them to have power restored by 6:00 am Saturday.
MESSAGE FROM THE TOWNSHIP REGARDING TRICK OR TREATING Each family should make their own individual decision as to whether or not you feel comfortable trick-or-treating tomorrow night (Friday, November 4). If you do decide to go out, please directly supervise all children as there may still be some downed wires in some areas.
TRASH COLLECTION
The Township’s garbage collector has been picking up trash since Monday on streets that the trucks were able to get to. In the case of a street blocked by fallen trees/branches or downed wires, they are doubling back and coming in from the other end of the street. If the street blocked is a cul-de-sac or dead end, they can only get those pick-ups that are before the blockage.
Township crews are continuing to open up streets blocked by trees or branches, unless there are wires involved. In those locations, we have to wait for the electrical utility crews to remove the trees/branches. The same is true for the recycling collection; they are picking up recyclables on the streets they can get through. FORWI (First Occupational Center) the Township’s collector, has been advising us which streets they could not pick-up or only had partial pick-ups.
