Tensions Flare As Developer Details Housing Complex; Residents Question and Critique Proposed Project

Ameeting to discuss the proposed redevelopment at the site of the former Bottle King property was held on Monday, September 18, before a standing room only crowd of residents at Town Hall. Residents living near the proposed development have spoken in opposition to the project at Township Council meetings all summer, and this meeting offered them a chance to share concerns and ask questions directly with the proposed builder of the project, Jonathan Schwartz of the BNE Real Estate Group. The meeting grew heated enough, at times, for one Council member to threaten to adjourn the gathering early on, but it ultimately lasted three hours. 09/21/2023 04:00 AM

Candidates Introduce Themselves

Candidates Introduce Themselves

During the period prior to the November 7 election, the West Essex Tribune will make space available to both of the Board of Education candidates, at no cost, in order for them to present their views to the public. It is our hope that this will allow the voters to make a direct comparison which will assist them in making an informed voting decision. The Tribune will not, however, accept “Letters to the Editor” from the candidates during that portion of the campaign. Nor will the Tribune publish letters of endorsement or opposition for any candidate, though we may choose to publish, in the issues before the election, excerpts from letters of endorsement received during the campaign. 09/21/2023 04:00 AM
