Construction at Woodland Park Nears Completion

The construction at Woodland Park may finally be nearing its end.

Work to put up a new pavilion is said to be entering the final stage with the footing base being put in this week and the actual new structuve is set to arrive next week, said Ken Job, borough engineer.

He told Mayor Rose Heck and council members Tuesday the project should be done by July 3.

The new pavilion will be constructed around the old fireplace, a gift from the Lions Club from many years ago, the borough wanted to keep intact.

Originally the project was expected to be done by the beginning of May but Job said there were several delays along the way that have caused the project to get off schedule.

Park improvements are being done with funds partially coming in from grants. Half of this project is being paid for by a Bergen County Open Trust Fund grant with the borough funding the balance.
