Improve Morris Township’s Quality of Life
Work with neighborhoods and sports leagues to identify needs and make plans
As long time residents and parents, Jeff knowS first hand that Morris Township needs to improve and increase the number of parks and ball fields. Parks and Ball Fields have been allowed to decline for too many years, and current facilities do not meet our needs. The County Parks, school fields, and National Park for which we pay separate taxes, should be supplements to Township recreation resources, not our mainstay. And Township government must shift land use and development focus toward improvement of quality of life and away from addition of ratables. Land must be acquired and used as neighborhood pocket parks, play and picnic areas, athletic fields, noise and sight buffers, and public gardens.
Enforce Speed limits more vigorously in residential areas
Un-enforced speed limits in residential areas are a danger to our families and limits our outdoor family activity. It’s often unsafe to walk along the side of the roads that go through our neighborhoods. Out Township must assess this situation and, where safety is at risk, provide safe walkways, especially to our children’s school yards and play places.
