Sustainability Leaders

At our last meeting, the Green Team Committee recognized four persons as Sustainability Leaders in the Borough for 2018.

We want to spotlight those who go above and beyond in being conscious movers of change toward a better and more sustainable community.

Recognized by resolution are:  Denise Batista, Green Team member and Community Garden Leader; Jack Layne, Borough Administrator (who resigned effective Dec. 31, 2018); Donna Stoddard, the borough's Recycling and Clean Communities Coordinator; and Eliana Neyra, Environmental Commission and Shade Tree Advisory Board member.

Congratulations to everyone!  And Happy New Year!!
