Summary

The DPW confirmed tree planting for Mahwah's 250th anniversary is approved and in progress, but the tree is unlikely to be ready for a July 4 planting and is more likely to be installed in the fall; the commission also discussed getting a commemorative plaque.

Chair Richard Wolf reported that Glenn Dowson, the township Department of Public Works director, confirmed the 250th anniversary tree planting has been approved and work is underway. Wolf cautioned that the tree may not be ready for a July 4 installation and is more likely to be planted this fall at Veterans Park.

Wolf also raised the idea of obtaining a plaque to commemorate the United States Semiquincentennial. The minutes record the update as informational; no formal action or funding commitment for a plaque was recorded at the June 10 meeting.
