🎓 Mayor's Bright Future Scholarship
Nine $1,000 scholarships awarded this year
Mayor's Bright Future Scholarship Night 2026

📷 Scholarship Night 2026

For the past four years, I have used the $200 fee I receive from each wedding ceremony I officiate to fund the Mayor's Bright Future Scholarships for our Palisades Park High School graduates. Every dollar goes directly to our students.

This year, it was my privilege and honor to award nine scholarships of $1,000 each to nine outstanding young people.

Weddings have slowed down recently, and I admit it saddens me — not because of the ceremonies themselves, but because each wedding helps create another opportunity for our students. I remain committed to continuing this tradition for as long as I am able.

지난 4년 동안 저는 주례를 맡을 때마다 받는 $200 주례비 전액을 팰리세이즈파크 고등학교 졸업생 장학금으로 사용해 왔습니다. 모든 금액은 학생들에게 직접 전달됩니다.

올해는 9명의 학생에게 각각 $1,000 장학금을 수여하는 영광을 누렸습니다.

최근 결혼식이 줄어들어 안타까운 마음입니다. 결혼식 자체 때문이 아니라, 결혼식 한 건 한 건이 우리 학생들에게 새로운 기회를 만들어 주기 때문입니다. 저는 이 전통을 가능한 한 오래 이어갈 것입니다.

Durante los últimos cuatro años, he utilizado los $200 que recibo por cada ceremonia de boda que ofrezco para financiar las Becas Mayor's Bright Future para los graduados de Palisades Park High School. Cada dólar va directamente a nuestros estudiantes.

Este año tuve el honor de otorgar nueve becas de $1,000 a nueve jóvenes excepcionales.

Las bodas han disminuido recientemente, y sinceramente me entristece — no por las ceremonias, sino porque cada boda crea una nueva oportunidad para nuestros estudiantes. Seguiré comprometido con esta tradición mientras me sea posible.

🌧️ Stormwater Improvements & New Ordinances
1st, 2nd, 4th Streets & Highland Avenue

▶ Construction Footage

The newly installed stormwater drains and lines on sections of 1st, 2nd, 4th Streets, and Highland Avenue are already helping reduce flooding in areas that previously lacked proper drainage.

We are working with the Borough Attorney on two new ordinances:

• Requiring developers to install stormwater lines when none exist within a certain distance.

• Requiring PERC soil testing to ensure proper water absorption and reduce flooding risks.

1st, 2nd, 4th Street와 Highland Ave. 구간에 새로 설치된 배수관과 드레인이 기존 침수 지역의 문제를 완화하고 있습니다.

또한 시 변호사와 함께 다음 두 가지 신규 조례를 준비 중입니다:

• 일정 거리 내 배수관이 없을 경우 개발업자에게 설치 의무 부과

• 침수 예방을 위한 PERC 토양 흡수 테스트 의무화

Los nuevos drenajes y tuberías instalados en partes de 1st, 2nd, 4th Streets y Highland Avenue ya están ayudando a reducir inundaciones en áreas que antes carecían de drenaje adecuado.

Estamos trabajando con el Abogado Municipal en dos nuevas ordenanzas:

• Requerir que los desarrolladores instalen líneas de drenaje cuando no existan dentro de cierta distancia.

• Requerir pruebas de suelo PERC para asegurar una adecuada absorción de agua y reducir riesgos de inundación.
