Solar Panels Approved For
Mounting On PSE&G Utility Poles
   PSE&G received approval from the Bd. of Public Utilites to mount solar energy units on 200,000 utility poles throughout N.J. By 2013, 80 mega-watts is expected to be generated by solar, with half coming from pole-mounted installations
   The solar panels will not be power-ing street lights mounted on the poles. They will actually feed elec-tricity directly into the power grid.
   Answers to frequently asked questions:
• Pole-mounted solar panel safety
• PSE&G pole-attached solar project

NJ FamilyCare ‘Express Applications’ Available Online

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. You can learn more about the Borough of Woodland Park and get general contact information by clicking the About W.P. link above.
     For information on how to contact individual Borough officials, click on the Borough Directory and Mayor & Council links. To find out when Council meetings, Board meetings, and community events are scheduled, click on the Calendar link or the Recreation Events button.
