Maplewood schedules follow‑ups after robust turnout at Parker Avenue meeting
Summary
DeLuca reported 58 attendees and 18 speakers at the March 10 meeting, and outlined the next sessions: March 24 (east section), April 9 engineering/public works/planning subcommittee (8 a.m.) and April 15 township committee meeting (7:30 p.m.) where further public comment will be possible. No vote occurred tonight.
At closing, Vic DeLuca thanked participants and reported attendance metrics to show continuing engagement: "Last week, we had 57 people ... Tonight, we had 58 people ... We had 18 speakers tonight." He reiterated the schedule: the March 24 meeting will focus on Parker from Boyden to Irvington Avenue, an April 9 subcommittee meeting will review engineering and public‑works input, and April 15 is the township committee meeting with additional public comment.
DeLuca emphasized the representative decision process: the township committee will take public input, staff and consultant recommendations and then make the ultimate decision. "We have a representative form of government. You empower us to make these decisions," he said, while also encouraging continued feedback before the committee vote.
