Stay Informed During Dog Days of Summer

We understand: It's summer. Many of you may be getting your Morristown Patch fix by smartphone, on a beach, somewhere far, far away. We understand, and we're jealous.

But, just because it's summer doesn't mean the world stops (it just slows down a little, probably from the humidity). In fact, there is a Planning Board meeting tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Town Hall. Also, there are several meetings in August you'll want to mark your calendars for. If the meeting does not have an agenda yet on the town website, make sure to check back the day of, or even the day before, as it should be available by then.
