  Debbie Bland Manning It's been like this for a few years now. There really should be a fence around this house to keep children away. It looks like it's about to collapse.

  Lucy D. Walker There exists a link where residents might lodge a formal complaint about this particular structure and others around our Fair City. Perhaps we are keeping our displeasure too close to home.

  Warren Neumann The code enforcement folks are busy harassing merchants who have too many signs in their store windows, you know, the easy stuff.

  Lucy D. Walker Warren Neumann. I get it. I was present at a City Council Meeting where an ordinance was passed that was supposed to deal with places like this. We do not make enough noise. And rest assured, 
  
  I also know that I am not winning friends with posts like this.  Too old to change now.

  Jovan Davis I have been trying to get information about this house ever since I came. At one point (I believe last year) they started to work on it but didn't finish as you can see. It truly is a horrible sight.

  Lucy D. Walker The Tax Assessors Office will provide the name of the owner. That is public information. It has been that way for a very long time. It is very difficult to have "Pride of Place" when that stands in the middle of the Place. Perhaps it is time that the p...See More

Englewood Welcomes 2 new Police Officers

Two Police officers were sworn in by Mayor Frank Huttle III
on January 19, 2015.
Welcome Officers James T. Reed and Ximena Sarria.
We were especially happy to see a woman born, raised and educated in Englewood, New Jersey.

Do Ballots Stop Bullets?

To Our BERGEN COUNTY NAACP PRESIDENT:
Were you ever taught Civics?
When?
Why was your presentation directed to Eagle Students and not the entire
HS Student Body?
Are you going to have a similar talk with the people carrying the guns and the folks who pay them with our tax dollars?
Did you explain the connection between a diverse police department and the City Manager, City Council and Mayor?
Did you explain how policeman are hired and fired?
Did you speak at all about psychological tests Policeman should pass on a regular basis and not just once?
Did you talk and about Rookies with guns?
Do they know that their GPA's, no matter how high will not stop bullets or choke holds?
Did you tell them not to trick or treat at unfamiliar houses?
Did you tell them how important is to learn how to make 3 point turns in order to avoid turning around in driveways?
Did you tell them not to knock on doors asking for help if their cars break down?
Did you deal with the reasons why there is a lack of diversity in police departments?
Did you give them a History of the Participation of NAACP in Civil Rights Issues?
Did you explain Engleworld's Charter to them?
Did you define City Charter?
Did you discuss City Government at all?
Do they know what to do with the voter registration form THAT YOU GAVE THEM?
Did you explain that it is of utmost importance to go home and discuss the Act of voting with their parents?
Did you ask them if their parents voted in the last election>
Do they have any idea of what you meant when you told them that voting could change the world?
Did they walk away thinking that the ballot could stop a bullet?
How are children expected to know the value of a vote if they have not learned anything about citizenship?

DID YOU LEARN ANYTHING ABOUT THE STUDENTS IN THE ROOM?

HOW EXACTLY WILL VOTING CHANGE THE FACT THAT PEOPLE OF COLOR CONTINUE TO DIE AT THE HANDS OF THE PEOPLE WE PAY TO PROTECT US?
