Scotch Plains Deputy Mayor Ellen Zimmerman urges residents to support Small Business Saturday
Summary
Deputy Mayor Ellen Zimmerman urged Scotch Plains residents to shop local on Small Business Saturday, naming Front Street, Park Avenue, East Second and Route 22 as neighborhood commercial corridors to support during the holiday season.
Deputy Mayor Ellen Zimmerman of Scotch Plains extended Thanksgiving greetings and urged residents to support local shops on Small Business Saturday.
"On behalf of the mayor, the township council and the township administration, we want to wish you and your families a Happy Thanksgiving," Zimmerman said, adding: "remember just after Thanksgiving is Small Business Saturday, so come on out and support our small businesses." The deputy mayor identified Front Street, Park Avenue, East Second and Route 22 as key local shopping corridors.
The remarks were presented as a community announcement rather than a policy proposal or vote. Zimmerman framed the appeal as part of sustaining the township's economic growth, saying the township is growing "because of your support" and encouraging continued patronage "on Small Business Saturday and throughout the holiday season."
