Road maintenance in winter topic of Mount Olive council president's latest webinar

MOUNT OLIVE TWP. – Township Council President Joe Nicastro is doing it again.
Last year, Nicastro hosted a series of information webinars that focused on timely topics from the COVID-19 pandemic to recycling to the municipal budget.
This year, those webinars return with “Snowplowing Our Roads....Answering all your questions,” to be held at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 17.
Nicastro will be joined by Township Business Administrator Andrew Tatarenko and Department of Public Works Director Tim Quinn, who will explain the procedures and materials used to keep township roads open in wintry weather.
Nicastro on Sunday said he was looking forward to again hosting the webinars.
“I think holding these public forums is a great way for residents to ask questions and find out what the township has to offer,” he said. “Plus the recordings are online for residents to watch and share at any time.”
Dates have to be set, but Nicastro said future topics will include services offered by the township Health and Building Departments and public library.
Also on tap will be another webinar about the township budget and how tax dollars are spent, “since it was so popular,” said Nicastro.
Those interested in attending should register in advance at https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_RZls9ryKSAym6TmBp2ycyw
Confirmation and how to join the webinar will be sent following registration.

Meet Your Mount Olive Town Council President

Joe Nicastro, My Life Publications publisher, and Mount Olive Township Council President, has a fun goal.
He wants to be on stage. “I love comedy. I always wanted to do stand-up comedy. That’s one of the things I wanted to do and actually I did one time. A comedian had invited me to do a stand-up routine at a wedding, believe it or not. I did it, but unfortunately – eh, I won’t say it was that great, but I still want to do something with it.” Read More

Residents Invited To Drop Off Worn Or Torn Flags In New Mailboxes

There are two new eye-catching mailboxes in town but they are not the typical mailbox for dropping in letters or bills.
Residents now have a place to drop off torn or old flags to be properly deposited and disposed. One mailbox is located at Town Hall in Budd Lake and the other was just installed right before Memorial Day just adjacent to the All Veterans Memorial at Turkey Brook Park, also in Budd Lake.
“The purpose of the boxes is to give the residents a place to bring old worn out flags,” explains Council President Joe Nicastro who came up with the idea a year ago. “There is a place at the All Veterans Memorial for properly burning the flag that will be done by the VFW or other organizations.” Read More
