In Montclair, time and again, we saw groups and individuals step up, to reinvent themselves, to help people in need, to find ways of being of service. To care.

The United Way has transferred ownership of the Mills Building on South Fullerton Avenue to New Jersey Community Capital (NJCC).

If the United Way building does not include a township-operated senior center, it will not be able to go ahead with its planned renovations, since the senior center was a condition of the Board of Adjustment giving its approval. 

In an announcement Wednesday, township officials cited “financials proposed by the United Way representative far [exceeding] comparable market norms for municipal facilities and what the Township could afford – even prior to the pandemic” in their decision.

United Way officials plan to renovate the building and parking area, with space on the first floor for a community center that is expected to be used primarily by seniors and operated by the township. 

Scrabble, Fortnite, and other games; schedules, watching movies and cooking together, as well as talking on the phone, can all ease social distancing.

The number of positive COVID-19 cases in New Jersey rose by more than 2,000 for second straight day, while a travel advisory is now in effect for the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut tri-state area.
