Polling Location Change... Minimize
District 1 Polling Location Changed... - Friday, March 20, 2009

The Borough of East Rutherford, in collaboration with the Bergen County Board of Elections, has decided to move the current polling location of District 1, which is currently 147 Hackensack Street, to a new location at the East Rutherford Civic Center (upper level), 37 Vreeland Avenue.

This change was taken into consideration due to limited parking, dangerous conditions for voters crossing Hackensack Street and the imposition and safety to residents of the building caused by voters entering and exiting throughout the day.

This change will take place for all elections in 2009 including the upcoming School Board Election on April 21, 2009.

The Civic Center is located on 37 Vreeland Avenue and provides adequate parking for voters.

The Green Team encourages residents to submit questions, comments, and concerns to GreenER@EastRutherfordNJ.net.
