SAFETY COMPLEX GETS ITS OVERSEER

Construction seen starting in spring 2023, running to late 2024

BY MICHAEL OLOHAN OF PASCACK PRESS

The town council on July 25 approved the hiring of a consultant to handle construction management services for the proposed $13.3 million public safety complex anticipated to begin construction in spring 2023.

The $378,000 contract is expected to last up to 20 months.

The vote was 4-0.

Thatʼs according to township business administrator and CFO Gennaro Rotella, who told Pascack Press the contract hires Epic Man-

The team went undefeated in the regular season, won the prestigious Ramsey Rumble tournament, and finished it off by bringing home the 1st place

trophy in the Kinderkamack Softball League.

Emerson, the #1 seed, beat River Edge, 10-1, in the quarterfinals; Oradell, 6-1, in the semifinals; and defeated Washington Township in a fierce battle in the championship, winning 2-1.

Head coach Tom Mulhern tells Pascack Press the crown was well earned.

“In the finals, we knew we were facing a great pitching staff and it was going to be a pitchersʼ duel, and the game was going to be decided by one or two plays.”

He said Sara Dauble belted a two-run homer in the 5th inning to open the game up.

Mayor Peter Calamari says a fall grand opening/open house is likely for the nearly $6 million emergency services building on Washington Avenue, now nearing completion.

Speaking with Pascack Press last week, he said the event would take place after the venerable but outdated firehouse next door is demolished “so there will be more parking at the site, and both departments, fire and ambulance, have had time to get moved and settled into the new building.”

If you look closely when passing by the new facility you can see the townshipʼs newest firefighting vehicle, Tower Ladder 41, delivered in late July and ready for action as it sits behind the firehouse doors.

“We are excited to welcome the new queen!” the townʼs volunteer fire department posted July 27 — adding that the open house would provide tours of the building and trucks.

The building was initially scheduled for a January 2022 opening but delayed by supply-chain

Harmony eludes council; redevelop agreement seen Aug. 9?

BY MICHAEL OLOHAN OF PASCACK PRESS

HILLSDALE

A key piece of the boroughʼs redevelopment plan for a fourstory, 255-unit, luxury apartment complex on Patterson Street — the redeveloperʼs agreement — likely will be formally introduced at the Aug. 9 council meeting.

The 7 p.m. session, whose agenda was not released by press time, is likely to include discussion of the agreement, which was referenced at the July 12 Borough Council meeting by special redevelopment counsel Joseph Baumann, financial analyst Jennifer Edwards, and architect Francis Reiner.

Mayor John Ruocco on July

25 renewed a critique of the council along the lines of transparency, telling Pascack Press, “A concern I have, unrelated to the financial (PILOT) agreement, is that the public was told that we would post all the relevant documents, including the ʻfinalʼ redevelopersʼ agreement, online before the Aug. 9 meeting so that they could digest and comment on it during the meeting.”

He said, “It is my understanding that a resolution will be on the Aug. 9 agenda instructing me to sign the redevelopersʼ agreement.”

Patterson Street Urban Renewal LLC proposes a 255unit, four-story luxury apartment complex, the first high-density development eyed in the boroughʼs redevelopment zone. Zoning regulations for the redevelop-

ment area are in the Patterson Street Redevelopment Plan, adopted in early 2021.

Ruocco and the council majority have spent much time and energy sparring over Ruoccoʼs desire for more public material to be made public, including on the town website under his “Spotlight” column. He has sought support and rulings on these questions.

For its part, the council majority has pushed back against what it sees as Ruoccoʼs “divisiveness” and “explosive” commentary, and of undercutting its efforts to improve Hillsdale.

This year the council changed its bylaws to restrict the mayor to speak first during the meetingʼs closing “council commentary,” barring the incumbent from having the last word on contentious topics.

“Redevelopment in Hillsdale” and then on “Hillsdale Specific Documentation.”

Prior to the July 12 council meeting, Ruocco, who served as a negotiating committee member, recommended approval of the PILOT agreement. Edwards revealed at the meeting that the borough would likely receive nearly $40 million in tax revenues over a 30-year PILOT with the redeveloper.

Edwards said the borough would keep 95% of those revenues. She estimated “a maximum” of 17 school-age children from the 255-unit luxury complex, which will include 20 affordable units.

Another contentious issue likely to arise Aug. 9 concerns the councilʼs 5-1 approval of an up-to $199,000 design contract with DMR Architects to design a separate senior community center estimated to cost $2 million — at the Stonybrook Swim Club.

Several council members urged seniors to attend the Aug. 9 meeting and let them know whether or not a “second” or separate community center for seniors should be built at Stonybrook. Most members said they were under the impression that seniors wanted their own community space.

Ruocco said he has heard the opposite.

Under the redevelopment agreement, Patterson Street Urban Renewal LLC will contribute a 5,000-square-foot indoor community space to be

Ruocco also has run letters to the editor complaining over what he sees as mistreatment at the council majorityʼs hands, unique in the Pascack Valley.

The governing body is Republican. Ruocco — who votes only in the case of a tie — and councilman Zoltán Horváth generally stand apart from the council majority.

Usually the council meeting agenda is posted the Friday before a Tuesday meeting. If the redeveloperʼs agreement is not released until the Aug. 9 meeting itʼs likely to be posted following the meeting or available via a public records request.

Ruocco had pressed for the early release of the redeveloperʼs agreement, and it appeared that Baumann was planning a public release before Aug. 9.

Outreach to Baumann, borough administrator David Troast, and council president Janetta Trochimiuk over the agreementʼs release was not returned by press time.

Meanwhile, redevelopment experts, local officials, and residents are likely to discuss two documents made public online on July 22: a 176-page traffic impact study, which finds the complexʼs nearly 400 automobiles “would not have a significant impact on the traffic operations of the adjacent roadway network”; and the projectʼs 30-year financial agreement, or PILOT (payment in lieu of taxes) agreement.

WWRSD on track with crisis, safety team WESTWOOD REGIONAL

A new District Safety and Crisis Team is on the job for the Westwood Regional School District, serving K-12 families in Westwood and the Township of Washington.

Superintendent Jill Mortimer first mentioned the new crisis team at the July 19 regional board meeting, in relation to updated district goals for the new school year.

She told the community in an email on Aug. 1 that the team would consist of “myself, principals, school psychologists, and the director of special services. …

Our goal is to identify whether any students possess the risk factors and warning signs for school violence before we experience a threat or incident.”

She said, “I find it heartbreaking when I see news stories that indicate a mass shooter exhibited concerning behavior, but there was insufficient intervention. Your most precious assets are your children, and that is a responsibility we take very seriously.”

Mortimer added, “The National Association of School Psychologists suggests that districts have a ʻmultidisciplinary, fact-based, systematic process designed to identify, assess, and manage potentially dangerous or violent situations.ʼ” On Aug. 1, Gov. Phil Murphy signed a new law that requires all New Jersey public school districts to form “threat assessment teams” beginning this fall that will help identify students that pose a threat to school security. The bill applies

to public and charter schools.

The bill was introduced by state lawmakers following the May school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, where 19 children and two teachers were murdered.

At the July 19 board meeting, Westwood trustee Michael Pontillo, also the boroughʼs police chief, called forming the safety and crisis team “almost the number-one goal” for the district.

He urged Mortimer to include it as part of the next yearʼs goals, pointing out that identifying students in crisis or need “is an important piece of prevention.”

(The goals for both the board and district were discussed at this meeting; theyʼll be finalized at the Aug. 25 meeting, said Board President Frank Romano III.) Mortimer provided Pascack Press with a link that offered a 16-page document called the “National Association of School Psychologistsʼ Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management (BTAM) Best Practice Considerations for K–12 Schools.”

“I am using a different name for the group because I think true threat assessment falls under the auspices of the police departments. We will be using the risk factors and warning signs … and the interventions/supports,” in the

document, she told Pascack Press.

“Studentsʼ right to privacy will continue to be adhered to.

Please note I will not be implementing the recommendations in this (document) word for word. It is merely a guiding document for what I plan to put in place,” she said.

The guidance document details interventions and supports including disciplinary actions, monitoring, skill development and resiliency building, and additional interventions.

Under risk factors for targeted school violence, the National School Psychologistsʼ document lists items including socially withdrawn; isolated and alienated; feels rejected; violence/bullying victim; feels persecuted or picked on; low school interest and performance; and intolerance and prejudice.

Other possible factors include drug and alcohol use; poor impulse control; access to and possession of firearms; history of violent expression in writings or drawings; uncontrolled anger; and cruelty to animals.

The formation of a District Safety and Crisis Team will be based on the National Association of School Psychologistsʼ eight-

step behavioral threat assessment and management approach, said Mortimer.

Step One is to establish a multidisciplinary threat assessment team, which will be known as the District Safety and Crisis Team.

Other steps include: define prohibited and concerning behaviors; develop a central reporting mechanism; determine the threshold for law enforcement intervention; establish assessment procedures; develop risk management

options; create and promote safe school climates; and conduct training for all stakeholders.

Asked if the formation of the District Safety and Crisis Team was in response to any recent incidents or simply a proactive measure, Mortimer said, “It is a research-based, proactive measure so that we can address the needs of students who have risk factors and display warning signs prior to them potentially posing a danger to CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Park Ridge burglar took dinner to go

BY KRISTIN BEUSCHER SPECIAL TO PASCACK PRESS

HIS WEEK WE GO back 110 years to early August 1912, when local authorities were on the lookout for a burglar with an appetite.

In the pre-dawn hours of Aug. 6, someone entered three businesses in downtown Park Ridge, all in the vicninity of Depot Square: the Park Ridge Pharmacy, Frahnʼs bakery, and the Park Ridge Hotel.

The burglar made off with 25 boxes of cigars, 100 boxes of cigarettes, two fountain pens, a pair of gold glasses, and about $50 in cash from the businessesʼ three registers.

And, most curiously, at the hotel the burglar had removed a leftover leg of lamb from the kitchen's ice box. Instead of taking the entire thing and making a hasty getaway, he remained in the kitchen to carve off all the meat, leaving behind only the bone. At the bakery, he also took a loaf of bread.

Col. Edwin A. Havers, a New York businessman who kept a country house at River Vale, was out for his usual early morning horseback ride in the woods when he saw a man hiding in the bushes. The sight spooked Havers' horse, and it took a moment to calm the animal. The man Havers had seen had disappeared, but he had left behind the remains of a meal and a pile of merchandise, mostly boxes of cigars and cigarettes.

Upon learning of the burglaries, Havers went to Park Ridge and reported what he had seen. Two constables and a dozen armed citizens combed the woods in search of the bur-

glar, following the trail as far east as the Hackensack River. Although they did not find the man, they did find the pile of stolen goods. The items were returned to their respective owners, with the exception of the cash, which the burglar had apparently kept in his pockets.

That night, Alfred B. Methudy, son-inlaw of Park Ridge Mayor Frank Mittag, was on his way home from a political gathering when he caught a burglar trying to enter a home on Maple Avenue. A dining room window had been forced open and the man was halfway inside when Methudy interrupted

the burglar, who ran off into the night.

Several days later, when a man was caught in the act of stealing a motorcycle in Park Ridge, people believed they had their burglar. However, when Col. Havers came down to take a look at the suspect, he delivered the unfortunate news that this was not the man he had seen in the woods. Nobody was charged with the three burglaries.

Bus stop moved; intersection overhaul delayed The County of Bergenʼs project to overhaul the Pascack Road–Washington Avenue intersection was delayed a week or so at the outset as workers wait for more drainage pipe to be delivered.

Meanwhile, Coach USA advised riders on Aug. 3 that its commuter bus stop on Washington Avenue has been relocated to the intersection of Pascack Road and Washington Avenue owing to the intersection project. Buses will now travel north on Pascack Road, pick up any riders at the intersection of Hillsdale Avenue, and press on to the Garden State Parkway.

Coach USA says anyone with questions can contact it directly or via social media.

The township posted on Tuesday, Aug. 2 at 4:23 p.m., “Our PD was informed by the contractor the project will be delayed this week and most likely next week until the rest of the drainage pipe is delivered.”

For its part, the police posted, “The Washington Avenue & Pascack Road intersection project will be delayed until next week due to supply chain issues. Please monitor our social media for updates.”

built onsite, along with 2,100 square feet of outdoor patio space.

After hiring DMR Architects on July 12, council members are proposing to build a separate senior community center, of approximately 3,500 square feet, at Stonybrook.

FROM PAGE 2

Most council members said they had always planned to have space for both young adults and seniors, and estimated 9,000 to 10,000 square feet of total “community space.”

On July 12, Trochimiuk took Ruocco to task for “so much misinformation” and accused him of trying to make council majority members appear “ridiculous” by

terming the senior center as a second community center.

She said that the 5,000 square foot community center being contributed by the redeveloper did not fulfill the councilʼs previous vision for about 9,000 square feet of community space.

She said council members have “spent endless amounts of time and energy” to bring about

the community space that they originally committed to providing when they included $500,000 for a bond down payment, on an estimated $10 million bond, for a community center, field improvements, and DPW flood mitigation.

Ruocco told Pascack Press, “Senior residents want the assurance of knowing that they have a place to meet several times a month, usually

during the morning and early afternoon, to conduct their meetings, hold various activities, and share a lunch.”

He adde, “They want a place to permanently store their food prep items. They do not need a second building dedicated to them so long as the Community Center in the Patterson Street development gives them this latitude.”

League aims to empower voters ahead of Nov. 8 election

AUGUST 8, 2022 • PASCACK VALLEY PRESS

8 PASCACK VALLEY

The League of Women Voters of Northern Valley (LWVNV) elected and installed its 20222022 board of directors and officers at its 76th annual meeting.

The LWVNV outlined its plans to provide voters with information they need to make informed decisions in the General Election in New Jersey on Tuesday, Nov. 8.

They heard speaker Eric Benson from Clean Water Action discuss how New Jersey could reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030.

Board of Directors Installed At the organization's Annual Meeting, the LWVNV welcomed its new board of directors: Leonia residents Nike Prieston-Bach and 3From front to back and left to right: Nike Bach, president; Anne Lander; Natalie Beaumont; treasurer Vicki Sidrow; past president Lucy Heller; secretary Andrew Meehan; Eric Benson, speaker from Clean Water Action; and Julie O'Connor.

Joyce Luhrs as president and first vice president of marketing respectively; Vicki Sidrow of Fort Lee continues as treasurer and financial secretary; Andrew Meehan of Hackensack was elected to the board of directors for the first time, as secretary; Sally Tayeb of Dumont was named a director and will serve as creative director of the chapterʼs website and newsletter; past president Lucy Heller of Park Ridge continued as a director; Anne Lander of Harrington Park will be voted to the board of directors at the chapterʼs next meeting in the fall.

Long-time directors and League members of 50 years Shirley Shapiro (Tenafly), Lorraine Cohen (Englewood), and Naomi Epstein (Demarest) stepped down from the board of directors after serving several years.

Sophie Heymann (Closter) continued as chair of the budget committee. Cathie Mick (Fort Lee) headed up the nominating committee.

Empowering Voters During the past 12 months, the LWVNV continued to empower voters throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Among its many activities, the League provided voter information to libraries in its service area, provided non-partisan voter information to the public, and interviewed state legislators. The LWVNV joined other League chapters across the country in celebrating the organizationʼs 102nd birthday on Feb. 14.

The LWVNV also moderated at candidate forums, a key service offered by the League for decades, allowing voters to hear from candidates and ask questions. The pandemic required the organization to change traditional face-to-face opportunities with virtual forums using online meeting technology.

The LWVNV joined League members throughout the state to prepare for the primary election in June providing voter information about the election process.

Coming Up: Voters Service Education The LWVNV renewed its commitment to Voters Service, a core activity of the League, to provide voters with non-partisan information in preparation of the General Election in November.

The LWVNVʼs activities will include conducting voter registration drives, responding to citizens' requests to schedule local candidate forums, and moderating candidate forums.

Information about candidates will be available on the

As for the role of local police departments, she said the district will consult with the departments per its memorandum of agreement and that local police chiefs will not be team members. She said anyone with knowledge of potential or threatened violence should call 911 immediately.

Also in her Aug. 1 letter to stakeholders, Mortimer said the school board had purchased the “Responsive Classroom” social and emotional learning program for the elementary grades. She called it “a much needed tool for helping students regulate their emotions, treat one another with kindness, and function as a classroom that is respectful of everyone.” It will be presented at the districtʼs Sept. 22 meeting.

School supply drive through Aug. 12

As the new school year approaches, families are struggling to obtain the necessary educational supplies for their children. The task is additionally difficult for families whose children are dealing with the trauma of cancer treatment.

Aug. 1–12, The Greater Pascack Valley Womanʼs Club is sponsoring a school supply collection to help these families.

Items needed include empty backpacks and lunchboxes, pencils, erasers, glue sticks, pocket folders, pencil cases, composition books,

pencil sharpeners, safety scissors, washable markers and plastic rulers.

Donations can be dropped off at the Park Ridge, Washington Township, and Montvale public libraries.

Drop boxes also can be found at 1 Gerard Court and 80 Terrace Street, Park Ridge.

Supplies will be donated to the Emmanuel Cancer Foundation, a New-Jersey-based nonprofit agency providing support and assistance to families dealing with pediatric cancer. Support of the ECF is a two-year project for the New Jersey Federa-

tion of Womenʼs Clubs.

Stars: Emerson 3/4 champs great recently and she was due for a big hit.”

After Emerson took the lead, Alyssa Mulhern re-entered the fray to close it out for the win despite enormous pressure.

Washington Township threatened in the top of the 6th with a few baserunners, but Mulhern was able to close out the game, striking out the final two batters.

“Alyssa had been lights out for us all season, and I knew when the game was on the line, she was the

person we trusted most. I was very proud to see how our team handled the pressure,” coach Mulhern said.

He added, “The season was a huge success, but I am most proud of the progress each of the girls made throughout the season. The

IS YOUR PORTFOLIO AS EFFICIENT AS IT COULD BE?

Editorʼs note: The following article is for informational purposes only.

When you look at a line chart of an ERIC KOHLMEIER investmentʼs historical performance, one feature to note is its volatility – how frequent and how extreme the ups and downs have been. This is significant because volatility is the most commonly used measurement of an investmentʼs risk. The greater the volatility, the riskier the investment is

considered to be.

If you viewed a chart comparing the stock marketʼs versus the bond marketʼs performance, youʼd see stocks have been significantly more volatile than bonds. Logically then, a 100% bond portfolio should be less risky than one including both bonds and stocks.

Right?

Not so fast.

In fact, according to a Morningstar study for the years 1970 through 2018, a portfolio comprising 67% bonds (measured by the 20-year U.S. government bond) and 33% stocks (using the S&P 500 Index) offered less risk and

better returns than a 100% bond portfolio. In other words, the former was more “efficient” than the latter, which leads to a concept investors should be aware of: the efficient frontier.

Start with the basics Having a grasp of the efficient frontier begins with understanding: • The relationship between risk and return • How diversification can help manage risk and return In general, risk and return go hand in hand. As an investmentʼs risk increases, so should its return.

If you buy a Treasury bond, the return will probably be low because the risk of default is low. If you buy a stock, however, the potential risk can be significant— think back to what happened to stocks during the Great Recession—and you should expect a greater return potential as “compensation” from the market for accepting that additional risk.

Diversification is simply blending different investments in a portfolio in an effort to manage risk and return. The result is your “asset allocation.”

A very simple asset allocation might include stocks, which tend to be risky but offer growth potential, and bonds, which have been more stable and provide income (interest). You can help manage your risk and return by how much you allocate to each type of investment.

For example, if you have a 75% stock/25% bond portfolio, it should offer a greater risk and return potential than one thatʼs 25% stocks and 75% bonds.

Getting to an efficient frontier Of course, there are lots of other investments for you to choose from, and there are an infinite number of portfolios you could construct from the stocks, bonds, and other assets available.

Each of these blends has a unique overall risk and return level.

If you plotted them all on a chart, youʼd likely see whatʼs shown in the hypothetical graph below. The “pies”—representing different asset allocations—farthest to the left and highest up are the ones with the best expected risk/return tradeoffs. If you connected those “dots,” you would have it: the efficient frontier.

Thatʼs what the efficient frontier is, but what does it mean for investors?

It means that if your risk/return tradeoff doesnʼt land along the frontier, your portfolio is not as efficient as it could be.

Youʼre taking on too much risk for the level of return youʼre getting,

and you probably need to make adjustments to decrease risk, improve return, or both.

Finding help Determining whether your portfolio is as efficient as it could be may require help from a professional financial advisor. He or she will likely ask about your goals (what youʼre investing for), time horizon (how long until you need to tap into your investments), and risk tolerance (how comfortable you are with swings in your portfolioʼs value).

Based on your responses, your advisor can help build a portfolio designed to help reach your goals as efficiently as possible. Asset allocation cannot eliminate the risk of fluctuating prices and uncertain returns.

S&P 500 comprises 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity, and industry group representation. It is a market-valueweighted index; each stockʼs weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. It is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance.

ESB: Fall open house/grand opening anticipated holdups, officials said.

The building, under construction for over two years, is on budget despite some costly initial change orders and nearby residentsʼ pushback over the buildingʼs size, scale, height, possible stormwater impacts, illumination and its cupola.

Earlier this year, Pascack Press reported several residentsʼ concerns about the buildingʼs size, scale, and construction quality, but architect Robbie Conley, of Robbie Conley Architect LLC, Woodbury Heights, who designed the

building and oversaw construction by visiting the site biweekly, said the building did not exceed its designed height of 53 feet at its highest point.

Conley noted there have been a “normal” amount of change orders on the project, including a $206,000 change order to drive steel foundation pilings into hardpan soil. However, construction has taken a back seat to other township land acquisition efforts this year.

Conley told Pascack Press on Aug. 1 that the emergency services building is “95 to 98 percent complete,” noting that the general

learned from the Natural Hygiene Society was that dairy is a major cause of congestion in the lungs. I made the connection that quitting dairy might help my chronic bronchitis. As a result, I completely eliminated all dairy from my diet.

That means no cheese, no milk, no yogurt, no Ranch dressing, no creamy sauces, no butter, and do I dare say it….no ice cream and no pizza! Because I was so sick and tired of being sick and tired, I decided to give it a try.

ESB: Fall open house/grand opening anticipated ing and building code standards that they need to follow did not apply to township-sponsored construction projects.

Moreover, just as the new building is being finished, the county has started a six-month project to expand and upgrade the congested Pascack Road–Washington Avenue intersection, expected to resolve traffic bottlenecks and congestion. It was unclear if the construction would cause any challenges for the new fire/ambulance departments and volunteers.

Conley speculated that volunteer responders emergency attempting to reach their new quarters might encounter traffic delays if the intersection project closes or partly shuts roads, as expected.

However, county officials and local police told Pascack Press that the construction should not cause complete road shutdowns, although it was likely to cause

FROM PAGE 18

temporary traffic snarls.

Calamari posted July 27, “The intersection project primarily involves widening the existing roadway and adding additional traffic lanes. The majority of the work will take place behind the existing curb line thereby necessitating minimal disruptions to the existing roadway and traffic patterns during the construction.”

He said, “When the majority of that work is completed, the existing curbs/curb lines will be removed and the new lanes and traffic patterns will be incorporated into the existing roadway with signage, signals and striping.”

Calamari said “the primary disruption” will be the drainage portion of the project which will go across Washington Avenue between Pascack Road and Meisten Street.

He said “There should be prior notice by the contractor with regard to that portion and the Police Department will make efforts to disseminate that information via signage at the scene

and social media/website. Any necessary detours will be created on a day-to-day basis based on the contractorʼs needs for that day.”

Calamari said “The existing traffic pattern will be restored at the end of each dayʼs construction.

The police department will make efforts to disseminate information received from the contractor regarding required detours or road closures via signage and social media/website as soon as it is provided.”

Traffic signal inbound, or needed, at firehouse?

It was unclear whether the township would be installing a traffic signal outside the emergency services building to manage traffic for emergency vehicles, as previously noted in the sharedservice agreement. Conley said he was not sure whether the signal would be installed.

He suggested that fire and ambulance volunteers may wish to assess the traffic situation up close before deciding whether a signal

was needed.

Calamari told his Facebook followers on Aug. 15, 2019, “Our present firehouse was renovated in the 1960ʼs and by all accounts desperately needs to be updated to modern standards and codes. Minimum basic needs for the building include bay doors to fit modern sized trucks, space for volunteers to perform essential primary and support functions, room to store their gear and areas to dress and equip themselves prior to calls.”

He said, “We worked directly with members of the Ambulance Corps and Fire Department on specifications for the building.

Concessions by both departments were made. These included reducing the size of the building, smaller multi purposing rooms and reducing the quantity of bays. In addition to providing the aforementioned upgrades, an exhaust system for the trucks exhaust will finally be provided.”

He said, “New traffic signals and lights outside the firehouse that synchronize with the trucks coming and going will also add to the safety and efficiency improvements.”

Calamari said, “We are currently working with the owner of Seasons to create a new commuter parking lot on the north west corner of the intersection. We could then provide the Fire Department and Ambulance Corps volunteers complete use of their parking lot.

This is also a positive safety issue not only for commuters but our volunteers.”

A firehouse signal provision was added by council resolution approved, 3-2, on Dec. 30, 2019: yes by members Michael DeSena, Steven Cascio, and Arthur Cumming; no by Robert Bruno and Michael Ullman. Cumming since passed away; only Cascio from this group is still on council.

The resolution read, “The Township shall provide to the county the funding necessary to

T OR C H D OW N • C OL D P R OC E S S • EP D M • B -D E C K I N G RE P A IR S

cover the cost of any traffic signal equipment related to signal heads at the firehouse driveway.”

The SSA does not state that the signal is necessary. We reached out to Calamari for clarification for this story.

Calamari ceremonially broke ground at the site Sept. 27, 2020. (“ʻMay it protect.ʼ Shovels in for townshipʼs joint firehouse, ambulance headquarters,” Oct. 5, 2020.)

Beginning in January, the township was found to be negotiating to acquire the 6.1-acre Washington Township Swim & Recreation Club for $750,000; and then bidding $1.35 million on a 1.5acre property at 95 Linwood Ave. (the former Charlie Brownʼs Restaurant), hoping to use it first for a

201. 481.1582 airoofingandguttersnj.com

DPW facility, and then a police department when residents opposed the DPW. Recently the council withdrew its $1.35 million bid following due diligence studies that showed underground piping from prior gas pumps used on the site, requiring more studies and investi-

gation.

Plans are afoot to move the DPW back to town hall, where it was originally housed, before soil contamination from the 1970s and 1980s required the original building to be razed and soil beneath it remediated.

— With John Snyder

Land deals keep town busy Since January, the township has been involved in two high-profile property acquisition efforts, knocking the firehouseʼs construction mostly off the public agenda.

Doornbosch, Ciulla honored at Rotary Club installation

This has been a season of celebration and pride for the Rotary Club of Park Ridge. The evening of July 10 at Hearth & Tap in Montvale was no exception. Past District Governor Bonnie Sirower officiated at the installation of new officers and board members.

The club told Pascack Press on Aug. 3 that Dan Antokal delivered a memorable recap of his year as president. “His achievements in advancing our clubʼs mission to provide community service missions were praised by all.”

And the club said, “Terry Ciulla set an inspirational tone as she looked ahead to her term as president in 2022–2023. Her remarks emphasized the importance of ʻservice above selfʼ to our community and mission to

Ciulla said, “We canʼt do it alone. We need to make it a point to collaborate with other likeminded organizations that have the same goals and passions as Rotary has.”

He lauded Ciullaʼs work on the clubʼs Alzheimerʼs steering committee for the Bergen County Walk to End Alzheimerʼs, and as an advocate working with state and federal legislators.

“She has been living the Rotary ideals through her lifelong commitment to service, fairness, goodwill and benefits to others,” Antokal said.

Awards to two members The Park Ridge Rotary Club grants a Paul Harris Award to someone who meets the highest professional and personal standards exemplified by Paul Harris, a Chicago attorney who, in 1905, founded the club that became Rotary International.

“Our Club grants a Walter D. Head award in memory of the renowned educator who presided as provost of the college that became Fairleigh Dickinson

University. Dr. Head was also instrumental in the formation of the United Nations and was an active Rotarian,” the club said.

It added, “While it is rare to receive either a Paul Harris or a Walter Head Award, this year Rotary Club member Jan Doornbosch received both. Club membership and past Paul Harris Fellows recognized Jan for his outstanding service to the community for nearly 40 years as a Rotarian and for his leadership of the Park Ridge Rotary Charitable Foundation.”

Ciulla received recognition with a Walter D. Head award from Antokal, who said the nod was “in recognition of her demonstration to club members the club mantra ʻservice above self.ʼ” “Terry has led multiple efforts

OBITUARIES

Anna M. MULLER

Anna Maria Muller of Emerson passed away on July 28, 2022.

Viewing at Becker Funeral Home, Westwood, on Monday Aug. 1 at 9 a.m., followed by services at Assumption Church in Emerson at 10:45. Becker-funeralhome.com.

Thomas J. PATTERSON

Thomas Joseph Patterson was born July 11, 1928 and passed peacefully into the loving arms of the Lord July 18, 2022.

Beloved husband of Anne, The love of his life. They just celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary in June. Cherished father of David and Barbara, Mark and Gina, Donna and Barry and Patrick and Jacqui. Adoring grandfather (POP) of Tifany, Michele, Thomas, Luke and Hannah. Brother-in-law to Russell & Robert and Kathy.

Loving Uncle Tom or TJ to many, many nephews and nieces. He is reunited in heaven with his parents David and Johanna and his brother and best friend, William, and his two beloved sisters, Gladys and Dolores.

Tom was born in Hackensack and grew up in Bergenfield. He graduated Bergenfield High School. One of his first jobs was stacking pins at the bowling alley there. He served his country in the Army during the Korean War and was stationed in Germany.

Tom and Anne met in 1962 at a party, they married soon after and then bought their home in Hillsdale where they settled and raised their family. Tom was a hard worker and a great family provider. He owned and managed the two Shell gas stations in Hasbrouck Heights from 1962 to 1987.

Tom was a devout Christian who loved reading the Bible. He

also enjoyed gardening, roller skating, bowling, water skiing and watching the New York Giants. TJ was a great conversationalist and a great debater. He loved to tease and joke around and make someone smile or laugh. Two of his favorite expressions were “Donʼt take any wooden nickels” and “Go sing over by the window; Iʼll help you out.”

Oh, how he loved his coffee, ice cream, a good Scotch old fashioned, and Johnnie Walker. He also loved tinkering in the garage. He never threw anything away and nothing went to waste. Tomʼs hands were blessed: he could fix or build anything. He did beautiful woodwork and was a crafter furniture refinisher.

A memorial celebration of life service for Tom will be held at the River Vale Community Church on Saturday, August 13 at 300pm. The family asks that any memorial donations be made in his honor to St Judeʼs Childrenʼs Research Hospital, the Wounded Warriors Program, or the River Vale Community Church.

Esperanza M. WARN

Esperanza Maria Warn, 72, of Woodcliff Lake, passed away peacefully on Aug. 1, 2022.

Beloved wife of Elroy Warn, devoted mother to Jason Warn and Roger Warn. Born in Armero, Colombia, she lived in Woodcliff Lake for more than 35 years before moving to Florida. She recently returned to be nearer to her sons and grandchildren, Kaia and Lukas.

She was one of Jehovahʼs Witnesses for almost 50 years. A memorial talk will be given on Saturday, Aug. 6 at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovahʼs Witnesses, 45 Woodcliff Ave, Woodcliff Lake, at 1:30 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to jw.org.

Carol Ann COPPINGER

Carol Ann Coppinger, 88, passed away peacefully at home on Tuesday, Aug. 2, 2022. She resided with her daughter in Emerson since 2019 but had previously been a resident of River Vale for 45 years.

Carol was predeceased by Clifford, her loving husband of 59 years. She leaves behind her children, Maureen and Edward Fulloon, Thomas and Alane Coppinger, and Matthew and Stephanie Coppinger; and her grandchildren, Robert Fulloon and Melissa and Aidan Coppinger. She is also survived by her two sisters, Maureen Hingers and the late George Hingers, and Patricia Buell and dear brother-in-law Richard Buell.

Carol was the beloved sisterin-law of Anne Marie and Carl Hildner, Joan and Mickey McGowan, Mary Coppinger and the late Richard Coppinger. She is predeceased by Eleanor and Patrick Collins, Jeanne and Jerry Olson and Reverend John Coppinger.

Carol was born in Queens, New York to Thomas and Mary Kane. She spent many happy years raising her family, volunteering at school events and enjoying summers at the Jeresy Shore and the Catskill Mountains.

Carol was an active member in her parish community of Our Lady of Mercy Church. She was a prayer warrior and brought hope to her friends and family with her faithfulness. She was a friend to everyone and was known for her sweet disposition and thoughtfulness.

Carol will be remembered for her bright, generous and kind spirit and her unwavering love of her family. She was a wonderful friend, aunt, sister, wife and mother and most importantly she was

ANNUAL STREET FAIR POSTPONED TO OCT. 23

The Montvale Street Fair, originally set for Sunday, June 12, was postponed to Oct. 23 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Paragon Drive.

According to Ghassali, some vendors and ride operators preferred to postpone over weather concerns.

With all the events around Bergen and Rockland County, the Montvale Street Fair is one of the most popular events of the season! The fair expects to attract more than 20,000 people from all over the region.

Wegmans Food Market is the

title sponsor, along with 25 other local businesses.

Paragon Drive has been a perfect setting for the past seven years. The tree-lined street is transformed into a large street fair with more than 100 vendors featuring antiques and crafts from all over New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania; rides; amusements; and 30 food vendors.

The fair has something for each member of the family. This year the street fair also features many communitiesʼ non-profit groups.

agement Inc. of Piscataway for preconstruction services at a flat fee of $7,850 and then for construction management services, including an onsite trailer, for $18,770 monthly.

Rotella said construction should last 18–20 months, likely finishing in late 2024. He said bid specs on the Public Safety Complex should be issued by October.

Initially, council approved hiring Epic in mid-February, but Rotella said both the township and architect reviewed the initial contract and requested modifications that were negotiated and ultimately delayed a final agreement.

Rotella previously told Pascack Press that while it had no influence on their decision, River Valeʼs public schools had been using Epic as construction manager on its projects related to the mostly successful $35.7 million April 2021 schools referendum.

Rotella said so far an estimated $14 million has been appropriated for the complex, including council approval of a late July 2021 bonding issue for $13.3 million.

In October, officials estimated an average $185 annual tax bump for 30 years to pay off the

It adds, “The building is positioned centrally on the site with a prominent street presence.

It is set back from Riverdale Road to allow for a greenspace buffer similar to the houses across the street. The site is bifurcated into front and rear to provide public and private access into the building.”

It says “There are two vehicular entry points into the complex from Riverdale Road.

RETIRED WOODCLIFF LAKE police Lt. Lyle Garcia, a member of American Legion Post 153, Park Ridge, recently observed his 25th anniversary the postʼs membership chairman.

Garcia is a Vietnam War-era veteran. His wife, Dawn, has been assisting with the annual Tri-Boro Memorial Day parade for several years by driving auxillary members in a car provided by her company.

Just before the two-year delay over the pandemic, the auxiliary ladies rode in style when the loaner car turned out to be a $400,000 RollsRoyce, probably the most expensive convertible driven in the parade.

Post historian Dick Bozzone presented the couple with certificates of appreciation for their efforts.
