Wyckoff residents now have the convenient option of recycling their clothing and shoes at several new collection bins. Residents who use the clothing and shoe bins will help boost Wyckoff’s revenues and save the township garbage disposal costs. The bins are located at Scott Plaza behind town hall and between firehouse #1 and the ambulance building. One bin is painted red with the universal fire department symbol, and the other is white with the universal first aid symbol. Another bin is located next to Fire Company #2 at 180 Wyckoff Avenue. People who use these three marked bins will also aid the township’s volunteer emergency response organizations. The township’s recycling and conservation center, located at 476 West Main Street, also has containers for clothing. The township continually explores areas to generate non-tax revenue. The recycling bin concept was proposed

by Finance Committee Chair Kevin Rooney during the formation of this year’s budget. Over the next two years, the companies that provide these clothing and shoe recy-
cling bins will pay to the Township of Wyckoff $43,230. Residents are reminded not to leave items outside the bins. For details call (201) 891-7000 extension 101.

This November, Wyckoff voters will elect three trustees to the Wyckoff Board of Education. As of last week’s deadline, four candidates filed for the two available threeyear terms, while one candidate, former trustee Danielle Swenson, announced her candidacy for the single unexpired term. The candidates for the three-year terms are Christopher Della Pietra, an incumbent, and newcomers John Carolan, Kathy Bowers, and Robert Buoni. Two potential incumbents, Raymond Hovey and Elizabeth De Gregorio, opted not to seek re-election to the Wyckoff Board of Education this year. J. KOSTER
