Traffic Light at Chandler Drive

I have requested that a traffic light be put up on Fair Lawn Avenue and Chandler Drive. Nothing transpired. There are lots of senior citizens in the new Commons Complex and on Chandler Drive. Drivers whiz by with no regard for these people. They rush to get onto Route 208 North. There is an accident waiting to happen and a traffic light at that corner is a must.

River Road Traffic Suggestions

Since the River Road Improvement Corporation has been doing its part to improve the River Road area, I would like to suggest some small improvements to the intersections at Berdan and Fair Lawn Aves. At Fair Lawn Ave, I think that a left lane only turn should be painted on the road going southbound on River Road.  And has anyone noticed that No Right On Red signs are being ignored?  Foot Patrol police or someone should be more vigilant in enforcing this. Will it take an accident and death? 

Secondly, I think changes should be made in the positioning of "lane signs" at each corner of Berdan and River Road. They are blocked by other signs or trees.  At what distance should these signs be clearly seen?  The no turn on red signs are not clearly visible, especially, if you are right under them. Isn't there some rule governing their placement as well? I think that the rule of common sense is not being applied.

Christmas Decorations

Congratulations to the River Road Committee for their progress so far. They have lovely wreaths up on the light poles. On the other hand I sincerely trust the folks responsible for the Radburn area do not put up those weak decorations that I have seen at this time of year for a long time. Better they do nothing though that is not my wish.

Plaza Road and Morlot Avenue Intersection

During the summer meeting the residents of Fair Lawn had with the Department of Transportation it was brought out that it is imperative that a delayed stop light be installed at the Plaza Rd- Morlot Ave intersection. If this commitment is not kept prior to the closing down of Saddle River Road we Fair Lawn residents are in for a real nightmare.

Mail About Fair Lawn News

Thank you for this wonderful addition to our Fair Lawn community.  I hope that all the citizens of Fair Lawn find the time to read and respond to it.  Phil Plotch deserves a great deal of praise for volunteering his time and talent in this way (and no I am not his mother!).  As the Deputy Mayor, I too want to find out what you want and need.  I hope to read that on this web site. Or, please e-mail me at ketzel926@aol.com

Just checked out the latest addition and all I can say is give yourself a pat on the back. It is a wonderful online paper. I loved it. Looking forward to the next addition!

Please notify me of additional publications of the Fair Lawn News.  Our town truly needs a way of keeping informed not just of quasi- advertised events, as provided by the Fair Lawn News channel, but of those issues and topics that affect our community, and ours alone.    The articles were somewhat brief, but generally resulting in a concise approach, rather than skimpy on information.

I read the Fair Lawn News with great interest! I was very impressed! I enjoyed the articles about local news, particularly news about the Grand Union, the Radburn Train Station, and Fair Lawn Real Estate. I also found some really useful information from your links to outside sources. These were very helpful. I would appreciate if you could notify me when new issues are available. Best of luck with your newsletter!

This is great!!!

Please advise me when the next issue is available.  I found out about "Fair Lawn News" at the Fair Lawn Library.  It appears to be a good means of communicating news that isn't readily found elsewhere.

Please notify me of next issue, I think this is a great idea

Response from the Editor (Phil Plotch)

Thanks for all the warm words.  With input from so many residents, we think that Fair Lawn News has become the best place to learn about and discuss issues affecting Fair Lawn.
