BERGENFIELD, NJ -- On Saturday, the Bergenfield Stigma Free Committee will host a candlelight vigil in honor of the lives lost in the two mass shootings that took place this month. The vigil will take place at Cooper’s Pond at 6:30pm, at which time the community will show solidarity against all hate and violence. 

“The senseless killings of fellow Americans that took place this month were appalling and remind us of the work that we must all do to stop this hate and violence,” said Mayor Amatorio. “Please join us this Saturday evening as we stand up together against hate and honor the people that have died in these awful attacks.” 

BERGENFIELD, NJ -- Bergenfield seniors received free hot meals this Wednesday as part of a donation from the Ridgewood Chamber of Commerce. The meals were delivered by Council President Hernando Rivera, Councilman Marc Pascual and Assemblyman Chris Tully. 

“Every week, our Borough delivers meals to the seniors at Murray Hill Senior Center,” said Council President Rivera. “This is one of the ways in which we are able to give back to the community and give our senior residents a quality hot meal.”

“We do the best that we can to provide the best possible services for our seniors and delivering these meals is another way that we are able to give back,” said Councilman Marc Pascual. “This has become a great weekly tradition and I thank Assemblyman Tully for helping us to deliver the meals and the Ridgewood Chamber of Commerce for their donation.”

BERGENFIELD, NJ -- Mayor Amatorio and the Borough Council have released their budget for the remainder of the year which includes a 0% tax increase. In spite of the Borough not raising taxes on residents, it is still delivering on critical infrastructure improvements, as well as renovations at every park in the Borough. 

 “Our administration has worked hard to deliver on our promise of fiscal responsibility in Bergenfield and once again there will not be a raise in taxes,” said Mayor Amatorio. “Even though our Borough taxes will not be raised, we will still be able to make improvements to our infrastructure, renovate our parks and continue to provide essential services to our residents.” 

 “Despite the fact that yearly tax increases have been the norm in municipalities around the state, in Bergenfield we are continuing to keep taxes stable,” said Councilwoman and Finance Committee Chairwoman Ora Kornbluth. “I am proud of the work we are doing to deliver excellent services to our residents without increasing their tax burden.”

BERGENFIELD, NJ -- Once again, the Borough delivered hot meals to the Murray Hill Senior Center as part of a grant received by the Ridgewood Chamber of Commerce to distribute 1000 hot meals per week. Councilman Buddy Deauna and Councilman Marc Pasqual helped distribute the meals this week.
