Dear Fair Haven Residents,
Today there has been a number of social media messages circulated related to overflow parking for the Red Bank Regional High School Commencement Ceremony to be held on June 18, 2026. I would like to take this opportunity to correct some misinformation.
On May 7, 2026, Mayor Halpern was in communication with Dr. Lou Moore, the RBR Superintendent, about the potential impact of large numbers of cars parking on our residential streets adjacent to the high school. Traffic and pedestrian safety was the primary concern in this matter. As a result, it was communicated that parking would be restricted on the Fair Haven streets typically impacted. RBR BOE did not respond, and arranged an alternate parking solution, which would provide a safer environment for families attending the commencement.
In light of this, Red Bank Regional HS arranged for overflow parking at the Rumson Jewish Center and at the Church of the Nativity, both on Hance Road. They are providing a shuttle service to safely transport attendees to the event which was our shared goal.
