Read CN Story, Attend CAG Meeting

Mark Spivey has a comprehensive news story about the latest proposal for the Muhlenberg property. The hospital's closing after 131 years was perhaps the biggest Plainfield story so far in the 21st century. The city lost its largest employer and only a satellite emergency room remains on hand for general medical care. Click on the link above, read carefully and if possible plan to attend the Community Advisory Group meeting tonight.

CAG Meeting
6:30 p.m. tonight
City Hall Library
515 Watchung Ave.

  2. Hi Bernice, is this meeting open to the public? Do you know if there will be a question and answer period?

    The last thing we need is another housing project in Plainfield, which is exactly what this will turn out to be. That property is surrounded by homeowners and I wonder how much consideration they gave to that fact?

  3. My understanding is that it is open to the public, but the City Hall Library only holds 50 people, so go early if you want to get in.

  4. Can someone tell me why Pascack Valley is being reopened? I know that Hacensack is buying it, but the mayor of Westwood talked about how that area of Bergen County was underserved.

    Interesting, Westwood area is underserved, but Plainfield - Union County (home to the second most powerful man in the Assembly) can't seem to find traction. Does that mean we are receiving proper care? Hmmmm.........
