Events
Russell Farms Update
On December 6, the Wyckoff Township Committee held the public hearing on the ordinance authorizing the purchase of Russell Farms, and then passed the ordinance later that evening. The acquisition is contingent on the receipt by the developer of a "no further action" letter from the state Department of Environmental Protection indicating that the pesticide clean-up at the site has been successfully completed. After receipt of this letter, the Township can take possession in exchange for the $3.1 million.

Ravine development is underway
On September 5, 2008 Judge Jonathon N. Harris upheld the Wyckoff Planning Board's approval of the subdivision panned for the 11-acre Deep Voll Ravine tract. The appeal was filed by the Save the Ravine Alliance. The Alliance’s trial brief stated the Planning Board’s failure to comply with Wyckoff’s steep slope ordinance and its approval of a faulty storm water management plan is “arbitrary, capricious and unreasonable” and that the approval should be reversed. The brief also argued that the Planning Board’s refusal to allow cross examination of the developer’s witnesses until months after they had testified was prejudicial to the Save the Ravine Alliance.
In Fall, 2008, Barrister began building the road and installed the sewer pipes.
