First, let me say that I am a supporter of the Paper Mill. Our daughter danced in the Nutcracker for 3 or 4 years as a young ballerina with the NJ Ballet Company. I was a make-up mom backstage, and these memories are very dear to us. That said, the Township is not a partner in the Paper Mill ...
Director Stotts spoke at the Millburn Township Committee meeting with a staggering goal — to solicit a $7.5 million gift from the township to fund extensive repairs, and construct a 4-story glass atrium, an extravagant project not seen by Broadway theaters. In 2008, Millburn Township purchased ...
In the most recent TAPinto Millburn/ShortHills article "Deputy Mayor Provides Flood Mitigation Update", Deputy Mayor Vinayak referred to a large, expensive, underground Rahway River "Bypass Pipe" project as the "solution" to mitigating downtown and residential flooding. The success of this ...
Regarding the November 27, 2023, TAPintoMillburn/Short Hills article entitled "Explore Millburn Executive Director Presents 2024 Budget"; As the article noted, indeed there are some serious issues on the table regarding conflict of interest with Director Steve Grillo performing similar services for ...
On two occasions, I stood at the podium of a Millburn Town Council meeting in June 2023 and again in July 2023 (ref.: TAPinto Millburn/Short Hills July 21, 2023, article on this topic) to express my educated advice (I am an engineer with over 55-years experience) that their planned actions to ...
Just a few years ago, there were months of fanfare and hoopla, with public forums and a taxpayer-funded study on the subject of making the downtown area a gathering place, befitting of our beautiful town. An outside firm, Perkins - Eastman, was engaged to perform an extensive study of Millburn ...
As a resident of Short Hills/Millburn since 1983 and a mother who raised her three children in this lovely town, I wholeheartedly endorse Ben Stoller and Frank Saccomandi for Millburn Township Committee. Mayor Miggins and her rubber-stamp Township Committee have foisted on us a terrible deal to ...
A Beacon of Hope: Endorsing Charu Goel and Bruce Kramer for Millburn Township Committee Election In every election, we search for a candidate who embodies the values and vision we hold dear for our beloved community. In this municipal election, Charu Goel and Bruce Kramer stand out as the ideal ...
I live in Short Hills with my husband and two kids in Glenwood section. I have known Charu since I moved here over a year ago. Charu is one of the most hardworking, caring and determined person I know. She is great at consensus building, work with people and speaks her mind out for town ...
Professionally, I am an Associate Professor of Endovascular Neurological Surgery with a dual appointment at NJ Medical School in Newark (University Hospital) and Cooperman-Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston. My wife Tannavi Prakash is a physician in Internal Medicine. Personally, I take great ...
As a 26-year-old child of immigrants who was raised in this town, I would like to endorse Ben Stoller and Frank Saccomandi because I truly want to preserve the best of the Millburn that I grew up in, especially the school system that has helped shape who I am today. To preface, I perhaps take more ...
I first moved to Millburn in 2005 when I was just four years old. It is the place I have called home ever since -- advancing through Millburn public schools at Glenwood Elementary School, Millburn Middle School and Millburn High School. Eventually, after graduating from Millburn High School in ...
The time has come for leadership change in our town, change from the partisan direction that has brought us a lack of transparency, mismanagement, propagation of personal agendas, and a general lack of respect for the resident’s voice. As one of the Independent candidates that ran for Millburn ...
I am excited to think about Millburn with leaders committed to focusing on the vision we have for our town -- avoid overbuilding and reduce crime. I am pleased to share that I endorse Ben Stoller and Frank Saccomandi for the Millburn Township Committee. As a working mom with a long-standing ...
As Indian immigrants who fondly call Millburn home, we believe that our town is a beautiful reflection of the dream that this country offers. Since 2017, we have lived in this idyllic town with our two boys and parents, have made many friends and enjoyed the vibrancy of a culturally diverse ...
Like many in this town, I’m a proud Democrat. I long to see Donald Trump wearing a jumpsuit that matches his tan. But what does that have to do with our town’s government? I appreciate the intelligent, thoughtful candidacies of Frank Saccomandi and Ben Stoller. They’re not running in the hopes ...
To the Editor: We Democrats will vote for Charu Goel and Bruce Kramer, the Democratic candidates for Millburn Township Committee, on November 7. We will vote for Democrats who identify themselves as proud Democrats, unlike the Republican candidates who hide their party affiliation. We will ...
I endorse Ben Stoller and Frank Saccomandi in the upcoming election for the Millburn Township Committee on Tuesday, November 7, 2023. I endorse Ben and Frank for the following three reasons which clearly make them the better candidates. I hope you agree. First I am opposed to one-party rule. ...

Along with that, they are upholding a high standard of transparency, as well as actively seeking and valuing residents' input, as clearly demonstrated at their recent ...
I’m proud to endorse Charu Goel for township committee! I knew of Charu through friends but got to know her better in the last few months since I moved across the street from her. She welcomed us with open arms, went out of her way to make us comfortable. Her genuine warmth and care for people ...
I have served as a Democrat on the Township Committee since 2019, in all capacities: Committee woman, Deputy Mayor in 2020, and Mayor in 2021. This Fall will be the first time I am voting for Republican candidates for any elected office, and I urge my fellow Millburn Short Hills residents to join ...
Now, I must say that I have seen two local candidates for town council in Millburn, who are running their campaign on the platform of eliminating partisan elections. Amen! That most certainly is a welcome approach toward stopping the two-party based elections which merely serve to divide us and ...
It gives me great pleasure to endorse my friend, Charu Goel. Charu is a wonderful friend, a loving mother and a trustworthy individual. Charu is a mom of two with one currently studying in Millburn high school and other in 3rd grade at Deerfield elementary school. She has a lot at stake for town’s ...
After witnessing a host of self-inflicted challenges to our town, from unsustainable, overdevelopment, to the absence of any meaningful flood-resistance solutions, all resulting from years of single-party rule, the Molka family is giving their wholehearted support to Ben Stoller and Frank ...
We are writing to support Frank Saccomandi and Ben Stoller for the Millburn Township Committee election this Fall. Their candidacy is singularly focused on township matters, not partisan politics. When you meet them, their political affiliation is not your immediate impression. Instead, what ...
I am proudly supporting Frank Saccomandi and Ben Stoller because they are the most qualified candidates to represent our community on the Millburn Township Committee. They are intelligent and care about the future of Millburn. They are not beholden to party leaders or special interests. Neither of ...

I am very excited that Millburn voters have the opportunity to elect my good friend Bruce Kramer to our Township Committee. I have known Bruce for over a decade, ever since he came into the life of our wonderful friend, Jessie Channin. Millburn will be lucky to have his considerable talent, ...
