MAYOR ANNOUNCES NEW VALLEY STREET TRAFFIC LIGHT, REPAVING, AND MORE

Mayor Vic Deluca this week announced a slew of projects, most related to Valley Street, that range from a new traffic light to repaving. There will also be a developer-funded renovation of the DeHart Center.

At Tuesday's Township Committee meeting, he announced:

* Essex County will provide pothole repair patching along Valley Street and NJ American Water will replace and repair asphalt over a trench they dug during their lengthy work along the street last year. 

* The county will then repave all of Valley Street, from Millburn Avenue to the South Orange border. 

* Next year, there will be a full traffic light installed at Valley Street and Pierson Road near The Mill and the Maplewood Country Club back course area.

* Elite Properties, which owns the apartments on Boyden Avenue known as Maplewood Crossing and are building another complex across the street, is donating $145,000 for the renovation of the De Hart Community Center next door.
