I'm pleased to announce that Vernon Township will be receiving an additional $200,000 in federal funding to support our First Responders!

This funding will be used to purchase critical active-threat response equipment and provide specialized training to better prepare our emergency personnel for dangerous and rapidly evolving situations.

This comes on the heels of another recent funding announcement last month, when Vernon Township was approved to receive an additional $80,000, including:

- $30,000 for a public safety drone.
- $50,000 for counterterrorism training.

That's a total of $280,000 in additional funding dedicated to strengthening public safety, improving emergency response capabilities, and equipping our First Responders with the tools and training they need.

Investing in public safety means investing in the people who put their lives on the line to protect our community.

I want to thank Congressman Josh Gottheimer and his team for their continued support of Vernon Township.

My commitment to public safety remains a priority. Our First Responders deserve the resources they need, and I will continue fighting for them!!

Vernon Residents: What Recreational Amenity Would YOU Like to See Built?

Pickleball courts? 🎾 Tennis courts? 🏐 Bocce courts? 🏒 Or perhaps, I personally would love to see a Roller Hockey rink in Vernon!

We have approximately $406,000 remaining from the pump track project that Vernon taxpayers have been paying debt service on for several years. Rather than letting this opportunity go unused, why not put these funds toward another recreational amenity for our community?

There is one important restriction: the funds can only be used for improvements in the pump track area. Returning the money would be difficult at this time and, based on our current estimates, would probably save the average taxpayer less than one dollar per month if we sent it back according to our CFO

Council President Higgins has agreed to add this discussion to the October 26th Township Council meeting agenda at 7pm

Now, I want to hear from YOU! What would you like to see built? Whether it's pickleball, tennis, bocce, roller hockey, or another recreational amenity, this is your opportunity to share your ideas and help shape the future of recreation in Vernon.

📢 Please attend the October 26th Council meeting and voice your opinion during public comment.

Let's hear your ideas and work together to make the most of this opportunity for Vernon residents!

Thank you

Mayor Anthony L Rossi
