Page 8 THE VILLADOM TIMES I • January 29, 2014 Midland Park Borough to vacate paper street Hunter Avenue was once a proposed street off Meda Place in Midland Park shown on a 1910 subdivision map. It straddled both Midland Park and Wyckoff but was never improved, with Meda Place following a different course than the origi- nal plans suggested. In 1968 the paper street was vacated by both municipalities. The property was divided among the homeowners on either side. Wyckoff recorded the change with Bergen County, but Midland Park did not. Now 45 years later, one of the property owners affected by that oversight wants clear title to his property and is asking for the resolution to be memorialized. Midland Park Borough Attorney Robert Regan told the mayor and council last week that the proper course of action after so many years would be to vacate the street through a new ordinance, which will be identical to the original one. The council expects to introduce the measure at its next meeting, and the change will be recorded following adoption, he said. Mayor Patrick ”Bud” O’Hagan, a Meda Place resident since 1970, made it clear that his property is a few lots away, and he is in no way affected. “This has nothing to do with the mayor. It came up by the resident’s attorney,” Regan said. In other business, the council awarded the contract for repair and maintenance of the camera and electrical systems on police vehicles to the lone bidder, Regional Communications Inc. of Paramus. The previous longtime service provider, Ken’s Electric, closed his business. Regional’s contract will be in effect for 2014 and 2015. He will charge an hourly labor rate of $90, and a 15 percent discount for auto parts.
