Tropical Storm Ida Recovery
Borough of Haledon
A Message from the Office of the Mayor
Our Haledon Community,
As your proud Mayor, my thoughts and prayers remain with everyone affected by Tropical Storm Ida. During the storm, the Haledon Police Department, Haledon Fire Department, Haledon Department of Public Works, and Haledon Office of Emergency Management, worked tirelessly to keep our community safe and secure. Our emergency response teams rescued numerous individuals from flooded vehicles, homes and businesses. Thankfully, no injuries were reported. Over twenty (20) residents were evacuated and transported to our shelter at the Haledon Municipal Complex. The evacuees were provided food, water, phone charging stations, sleeping-kots and blankets. The Haledon DPW is continuing with cleanup efforts throughout the borough. Our Recycling Center remains available to our residents as well.
I am thrilled to announce that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has officially declared Passaic County eligible for Individual Assistance. Both insured and uninsured residents can apply for relief, which may include reimbursement for eligible loses, due to Tropical Storm Ida. To apply, please follow this link: https://www.fema.gov/disaster/4614
Although we have made tremendous progress, the fight against COVID-19 continues. As of this writing, since the start of the pandemic, there have been 1,434 positive cases of COVID-19 in Haledon; unfortunately, 28 Haledon residents have perished from complications of COVID-19. Just today, Haledon reported fourteen (14) new cases of COVID-19, with ages ranging from 11 months old to 84 years old. Your local Walgreens and Rite Aid are offering COVID-19 vaccinations. The Passaic County Department of Health also continues to offer COVID-19 vaccinations. For more information, please visit: https://www.passaiccountynj.org
