Weekend Update

Dear Resident,

The weather has warmed and residents are enjoying our parks and open spaces.  I ask everyone to please slow down and be on the lookout for bicycles, motorcyclists, walkers and runners.  Parents, please take a moment and review bike safety with your kids HERE.

As you begin to fill pools and water lawns, the Marlboro Water Utility reminds you that water bills are driven by consumption.  Please check for leaks and ensure everything is running properly so there are no surprises when you receive your bill.  Click HERE for more.
