Woodland Park Board Kills 12-Unit Lackawanna Project Over Density, Traffic Fears

29-33 Lackawanna Ave. — Approximate Site of Proposed Apartment Project. Woodland Park’s Zoning Board of Adjustment voted 6-1, with one member abstaining, to deny a proposal that would have combined four properties at 29-33 Lackawanna Avenue into a three-story building with 12 apartments, a 730-square-foot commercial space, and parking. The board rejected the application over zoning-exception and neighborhood-density concerns, ending a review of a project that had already been reworked once to address earlier objections.

Paterson plans to ban e-bikes from certain areas and fine offenders

PATERSON — Electric bicycles and scooters would be banned from operating on Paterson sidewalks under an ordinance that received preliminary approval from the City Council on Tuesday, Nov. 10. The prohibition also would cover walking paths in municipal parks. The ordinance said it is targeting people who operate the electric vehicles “in a heedless, willful, or wanton manner that creates an unreasonable risk of injury to any person or damage to property.” Moreover, the ordinance would regulate parking e-bikes and scooters on sidewalks, requiring that the vehicles leave at least three feet for pedestrians to pass. The fine for a first offense would be a maximum of $100. The penalty would grow to $250 for a second infraction within 12 months and $500 for a third. Story continues below photo gallery But the ordinance includes a 90-day “education” period during which police officers would issue written warnings instead of summonses. State law already regulates “reckless or careless operation” of electric vehicles, the ordinance noted.

Waldwick/MP wins the day(s)

WALDWICK – “Win the Day.” That’s what Waldwick/Midland Park football lives by and what it is trying to accomplish everyday. It was just last year that Waldwick/Midland Park lost to Glen Rock in the first round of the state sectional football playoffs. The Warriors finished with a 6-4 record, but showed promise towards the end of the regular season finishing with five straight wins to grab a playoff berth. And, they returned most of their young core this season.
