Woodrow Ave. & Borrego Dr.
Project To Be Done This Fall
   A $180,000 federal Community Development Block Grant from the County of Passaic is being used to fund re-surfacing of Woodrow Ave. from Mt. Pleasant Ave. to Garden Ave., along with some curb and sidewalk repairs.

   Work is expected to be completed by the end of Nov..

ments with maintaining a clean, litter-free community.
 
Noise Ordinance Amended
To Change Prohibited Hours
   Ordinance No. 10-5, known as “Noise Ordinance Amending Time Periods”, prohibits “loud, disturbing and unnecessary noise” in violation of Section 5-17.4 Prohibited Acts.
   These are “prohibited between the hours of 9:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M., on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednes-day and Thursday; and the hours of 10:30 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. on the days of Friday and Saturday, in a manner as to be plainly audible at a distance of fifty (50) feet from the building, structure or vehicle in which noise is emanating shall be prima face evidence of a violation of this section.”
 
Health Insurance For Uninsured
With Pre-existing Conditions
   A new program administered by Horizon Blue Cross/Blue Shield, called NJ Protect, took effect on Aug. 1 to cover uninsured residents with pre-existing conditions.
   First day coverage is offered, as well as preventive care with no out-of-pocket costs.
   For information, click here to visit the State’s website for NJ Protect.
   Applications are avaiable by calling 888-551-2130.
 
NJ FamilyCare ‘Express Applications’ Available Online
   More than 450,000 children in New Jersey do not have health care coverage, according to data provided by their parents’ state tax returns. The state is using this information to help enroll children in the NJ FamilyCare program.
   NJ FamilyCare is a low-cost or free program for income-eligible families. For instance, a family of four earning up to $77,175 (or 350 percent of the federal poverty level) can qualify to insure their children for about $130 a month in the state- and federally-funded program.

Welcome to Woodland Park, N.J.
     West Paterson’s name was changed to the Borough of Woodland Park, effective January 1, 2009. A refer-endum on the Nov. 4, 2008 General Election ballot, calling for the name change, resulted in a majority of the registered voters in favor of changing the name of the borough: 2,136 Yes to 2,111 No. On Dec. 17, the Mayor and Council approved a resolu-tion accepting the election results and officially de-claring Woodland Park as the borough’s new name.
     A second referendum was placed on the Nov. 3, 2009 General Election ballot seeking to have the borough’s name revert back to West Paterson. Voters defeated the question: 2,248 No to 2,216 Yes. Therefore, the borough’s official name will remain Woodland Park.

     In this website, you’ll find information about our municipality’s services and our community.
     Woodland Park is a suburban town of mountain and river edge neighborhoods. The Borough is located in the northeastern part of the state about 20 miles west of New York City.
