evening, we have a couple of presentations and proclamations as well as a recognition of one of our uh victorious softball teams here in town. Uh but to start this evening off, we are going to start with a uh award that we received from our county partners for
our open space farmland and historic preservation trust fund. And we are very honored this evening to be joined by Commissioner Rodney D'vor from the county. Uh, as many of you here know, especially our sports teams and our athletes in town, something that we have taken great pride in here in Little
Falls over the past handful of years, is making major improvements to all of our parks and recreation facilities. And the way that we're able to do that is by not only uh utilizing some taxpayer money here in Little Falls, but what we attempt to do is offset all of the cost
to the Little Falls taxpayers by going out and securing grants, whether it be from our federal partners uh or the county. and the county has been instrumental in contributing hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars over these past couple of years. In fact, we're well into the millions of dollars over these past handful of years
uh from the county and this year uh being spearheaded by the entire council, but in particular Councilwoman Habitz. Uh the next park that we are going to be focusing on making major improvements to is Amity Field. Uh particularly the playground area which is in need of some
major repairs. I know for all of our athletes that are playing there, sometimes the younger siblings are on the the playgrounds and for all of our neighbors in that area utilizing that park, the playground over the past year or two has begun to fall into some disrepair. So, uh, with the assistance of the county, uh, we are honored to be
able to begin making and completing a major renovation to Amity Playground at very little to almost no cost uh, to the taxpayers here in Little Falls. And I want to thank our commissioner Rodney D'vor for joining us this evening who brings with him a very large check in
the amount of $198,500 which is being given to us by the county this year towards the improvements to that park. I'm going to ask the commissioner and the entire council to join me up here for a uh for a photo. Good evening, Little Falls mayor and
council. It gives me great pleasure to come here and to give, not me personally, to give almost $200,000 to recreational and upkeep of Little Falls. The one thing people often ask me, what do you like about being a county
commissioner? This would be one of those things. When I walk in a room and I see a lot of youth in the room, no offense or the people when I see a lot of youth in the room, uh, congratulations to what you do, but this would help you continue to
practice and win on home field. So, it gives me great pleasure, mayor, to bring this check to Little Falls, which I am no stranger to. I've I've pretty much dealt with everyone here on the council as well as residents as well as right there. Um, but I love doing this.
Thank you. Congratulations to So team and congratulations Little Falls. All right. Before we get to honoring our athletes that join us here this evening, we have two proclamations that I would like to read. The first being the National Friends of the Libraries Week
proclamation. And I see that we are joined here by some of our friends of the library. So I'm going to ask them to join me up here as I read this proclamation and our library director. Well, or come on up. All right. And our proclamation this
evening reads, "Whereas libraries are essential to the educational, social, and cultural fabric of our communities, providing free access to knowledge, information, and resources that empower people of all ages and backgrounds. And whereas the friends of the library groups across the nation, including our
own friends of the Little Falls Library, play an indispensable role in supporting, enhancing, and advocating for the mission and services of our local libraries. And whereas the friends of the library are instrumental in fundraising efforts that provide muchneeded financial resources, enabling
libraries to expand their programming, services, and collections beyond the limitations of public funding. And whereas the contributions of the friends of the library not only provide material benefits, but also foster a culture of volunteerism, engagement, and community
spirit that strengthens the library's role as a welcoming space for all. And whereas National Friends of the Libraries Week offers an opportunity for the township of Little Falls and the entire community to recognize the important work of the Friends of the Library and to encourage others to join
them in supporting our library's mission. And whereas the continued success of the Little Falls Public Library is directly tied to the commitment and passion of the friends of the library whose efforts make a lasting difference in the lives of our residents. Now therefore, be it resolved
that I, Mayor James Belelfford Damiano, on behalf of the township council, do hereby proclaim the week of October 19th to the 25th of 2025 as National Friends of the Libraries Week in the Township of Little Falls and encourage all residents to recognize and celebrate the
contributions of the Friends of the Library and to actively support our local libraries in any way they can. So, as you heard from just the proclamation alone, the friends of the library does so much more for this township uh than than get together as a
group. They are here to raise funds to provide so much for our library because libraries are restricted by the funding that they are provided by a state formula and we are only able to do so much with that funding. So, it is groups like Friends of the Library that do so much for our library to bring in
additional programs, additional funding. And I want to thank them for all of their hard work and all that they do in making all the programs at the library possible because I will tell you any time of day, day and night, any day of the week, you drive by that library and there is something going on. And that is large in part due to the friends of the
library and all of their efforts that they put in every single day to make all that possible. So, thank you all for everything that you do. So, uh, we do have our meeting tomorrow night at 7:30 at the library. Uh, we'll be meeting in the Are we meeting in the conference room tomorrow night?
>> We'll be in the conference room at the start of the year. We normally do a bigger event upstairs to celebrate the new year. Uh tomorrow night we'll be talking about all the fundraisers that we're kicking off this week as friends of library week. We have a dine and donate Wednesday night at Shake Shack and we also have a number of sales going
on online right now. So we have a flower bulb sale online going on right now as well as a friends of the library swag sale. So we have all sorts of t-shirts and everything available online that you can purchase. And uh just we're looking forward to
getting a lot of new members this week. So come on down to the meeting tomorrow. We'll we'll have a lot of baked goods to entice you to come. So >> and we also have all our posts on social media this week. We're doing big blast. So you'll be able to follow everything on our Facebook and Instagram pages for
all the update. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. Thank you. I I just want to say thank you to each and every one of you because I know there's a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to go into what you guys do and I just want to thank you very much for
everything that you've done. Just so that you all know, um they were instrumental in the library sign above the door. They helped fund that. Um this go around they're going to help us fund brand new children's furniture. So, um it's they're doing a great big deal, um
to be able to hopefully get that done by the end of the year. So, again, just thank you very much for all your efforts and everything. Thank you. >> All right. And the last proclamation we have this evening is Hindu Heritage Month in Diwali. And whereas Hinduism is the third largest religion in the world
with 1 billion devotees worldwide and 4 million in the United States. And whereas Hindu heritage, culture, traditions and values serve as a source of inspiration, reflection, and contemplation for the millions of people who look to the teachings of Hinduism for guidance. And whereas our vibrant
Hindu-American community has contributed tremendously to the vitality of the township of Little Falls by enriching the lives of its people. And whereas Diwali a festival of historic and religious significance is celebrated annually by millions of Hindus, Sikhs, gains and Buddhists throughout the
United States and across the world. And whereas Diwali is celebrated by Hindus as a day of thanksgiving for the homecoming of Lord Rama in the beginning of the new year. And whereas during the month of October, the Hindu community across our great nation will collectively celebrate its heritage by
focusing on its culture and the and the diverse spiritual traditions rooted in India. And whereas it is with immense pride and honor that I recognize the contributions of all Indian-Americans to our economy, history, and culture. And now therefore, be it resolved that I,
Mayor James Belfford Damiano, on behalf of the Little Falls Township Council, do hereby proclaim October 25th, I'm sorry, October 2025 as Hindu Heritage Month and October 20th, 2025 as Dwali in the
township of Little Falls. All right, and last but certainly not least, we are joined here this evening by our 14UA squad of our 2025 summer team of our junior Hornets here or Lady Hornets here in town who had an
outstanding season with a final record of 10-2 going 3-0 in the playoffs, winning the championship game against West Orange with an absolutely dominating victory of 24-2. That is certainly one way of letting the
other team know that you are there to win. And uh so congratulations on such a tremendous victory. I'm going to call up all the coaches and coach Tommy here to call up the girls and uh we'll give out some medals. Uh thank you mayor and council for uh
hosting us tonight. Um this team was a fantastic team. I've been coaching a lot of these girls uh since 8U. Um and now they're 14U seventh and eighth graders and some high schoolers. Uh they just had tons of determination. We had a lot of fun. Uh a
lot of teamwork. Um, and I couldn't have done it out done it without my coaches, so I'll call them up first. Uh, Vin Moraglia and Brian Callahan. All right. Unfortunately, we don't have all the girls here, but I'll um get through their name. We'll just skip
program. How many girls are your names? Come on up. Okay. Uh, Harper Burrell. Uh Allison Molito who's not here, Antonio Vincenti, Ariana Swagella who's not here, uh Bianca Banetti,
Daniela Boyce, uh Leah Callahan, you want to step off her >> Lily Corder, Olivia Moraglia, Sophie Stokes, and the rest of girls are not here. Olivia Verie, uh Olivia Mariconee, and
Victoria Maluso. Uh just real quick, um we had certain, you know, players on this team that were definitely leaders. We had some older girls that definitely stepped up. Um I try to teach the girls, uh the right way to play. We all we we all do to respect the game, uh to play with heart,
determination, always give 110%. um one of the older girls who's here tonight um definitely exemplified that she led by example. She was always uh into the game and I she was really a mentor to a lot of the young girls. So that's B.
And then um yeah, we we uh we did very well in our championship game, you know, decimating West Orange, but our hardest game was uh our semi-final round versus North Caldwell. Um and one part of that
game really kind of uh was was very emotional for me and I know emotional for the coaches. Um but that was Sophie with her base clearing triple. um that that that kind of just uh me
personally just showed um determination and that you know softball's a game but you know in in life we just have to keep fighting and keep working um and Sophie you know going through all that she's been through just making a massive
comeback and just really really playing well. So sorry for embarrassing you but That's all That's all I got. Oh my god. Congratulations. >> Good night. lighting. Mayor, why you have the floor? Can you
uh since councilwoman uh councilman uh Vaneri isn't with us this evening, we discuss 1529 and 1531. >> Absolutely, Council President. So, we have two ordinances on this evening. 1529 and 1531 would have to do with downtown parking along our main street,
particularly related to handicap parking and a loading zone. We have been approached by not only our business community but also our senior and handicapped community who have been asking for additional parking spaces to be placed along Main Street near our
businesses where they sometimes have difficulty parking and getting into a the buildings from a very close location. Uh so what we have done is met with our some of our businesses as well as our handicapped community and what we
have done is come up with an ordinance to add some handicap parking spaces as well as a loading zone which has also been a major problem for many of our businesses in our downtown and we have come to find that in front of the portion of roadway between Stevens Aav and Center a where we've added a loading
zone it has been uh particularly beneficial to our businesses and very successful in allowing them to continue to operate without the delay in having their their products or whatever it may be uh delivered to them. So, we're going to similarly add one to the other
section of our downtown area between really Maple and Patterson A where we're looking to add or I should say Maple and Stevens. We're looking to add these additional uh park handicap spaces as well as a loading zone. So, looking to add those throughout our downtown community to assist not only the
businesses but our senior and handicapped community. So, uh, that is in short, council president, what 1529 and 1531 are addressing. >> Thank you, mayor. >> Questions from the council. >> We'll move to council reports. Councilman Murphy, can you lead us off?
>> Sure. Thank you, Council President. Just like to uh thank and congratulate the PV Lady Hornets uh for being here tonight on their successful or should I say dominant season that they had. Um, good to see them all. Just want to congratulate them on that season that
they had. also like to thank the Pay County Commissioners and Commissioner D'vor for being here tonight delivering that check. Uh good to see what all they do for us and help us out. So, I just want to thank him as well. Uh we had a domestic violence awareness committee meeting uh two weeks ago. Um and I have
to thank the police chief because uh after the uh flag raising, Lieutenant Gilchrist had reached out to me uh and wanted to kind of brainstorm on ways that we can collaborate better between the committee and the police department. And so we had probably about a 30-minute call and uh really came up with some
great ideas. I brought that back to the committee and they were just thrilled on how we could further um our relationship, work closer together with you guys um as well as work closer with our liaison. So we have some ideas that we jotted down. We're going to be working on as as well with the uh Jersey Bomen Services and the uh Pris County
Prosecutor's Office. So a lot coming down the pike uh that we're excited about. So, just want to thank you and your staff um for always uh working with the committee and uh bettering us and and helping us better the residents as well. Uh so, just wanted to thank you for that. It's all I have, Council President. >> Thank you, Councilman Murphy. Uh before
we continue, on behalf of the entire council and the mayor, we want to wish a great congratulations to sitting councilwoman Patel who recently got married um and is going to be staying in town. Uh, so congratulations.
Council President, >> Councilwoman Habits, >> that you took the first thing off my >> It's my job. >> Um, I just want to say it was a tremendous weekend here in Little Falls. Uh, first we had our annual Spooky
Sprint 5K. Um, it was really great. Uh, we had the most participants that we've ever had to date, 265. Um, special thanks to everyone who made the day happen. Our wreck department, our police department, our DPW, our EMS, our SH, our SH team. Uh, we could not
have this run without this. Um, thank you to the mayor and uh, council members for attending and a special thank you to my run partner who started this all with me, Tommy Seit. I'm hoping to grow it even more and be even bigger with
attendance and more to do next year. Uh the farmers market was also super busy yesterday with great vendors and great events yesterday. Uh the Girl Scouts were there painting positivity pebbles that they will be planting um in Wilmore Park along the path. Uh the friends of
the library helped with the pumpkin patch and we also had our annual doggy Halloween costume contest uh with some great participants. Um next week will be our last market of the season. We will have trick-or-treating with all the vendors. So hope to see you there. Um, I'm also thrilled with the presentation
of the check and a big thank you to uh to uh Commissioner D'vor and the State County Open Space. Uh, these funds along with other grant funding that we receive uh brings us one step closer to the construction of Avenue Park as the mayor alluded to. So, we are very very
thankful to the county. And then lastly, thank you to the mayor and this council for the proclamation for the Friends of the Library uh for Friends of the Library Week. Um over the last few years, as uh was said, the friends of the library, uh they're really growing and have been assisting uh with the
fundraising to offset the cost of library um things like the sign and coming up with the uh children's uh furniture that they would be helping. So very thankful as the library leaison. That's all I have.
>> Thank you, Counciloman. Council Lau. >> Thank you, Council President. Um, thank you to the mayor and my coun uh fellow council members for the kind wishes, more importantly for your patience and understanding while I was wedding planning for the past few months. Um, in
terms of updates, the health committee um, we have they met earlier today and do want to recommend to the residents on getting vaccines for the flu, the RSV for RSV and COVID. There was a flu clinic here today and if you were unable
to attend, the health department is hosting another one on Thursday, October 23rd from 2:30 until 4 at Clifton City Hall. Um, I also want to let any residents that are homebound know that if you do need someone to come to your house to get any of the vaccines, you
can contact me or the health department and they'd be happy to have a nurse come over and give you the vaccines that you need. Um, there will also be a paint and sip at the Little Falls Civic Center in honor of breast cancer awareness month on October 23rd. Um, that's going to be
at 6 p.m. There's very limited openings, so if anyone is still interested, please register quickly. We're also going to be looking for residents to participate in our upcoming focus groups for a rapid community health assessment. There's going to be
four different types of focus groups. One's going to be the seniors, one's going to be parents um of those that are in school in Little Falls, parents of the Little Falls Athletic Club, and then the general public. Uh the location dates and times will be posted, and I'll
provide additional information on that. But it's very important for the residents to get involved because the results from this assessment are really going to give the Clipton Health Department and the public health committee the information uh they require to see what programs and other information that we do need to bring to
Little Falls. Uh the next public health meeting is going to be on Wednesday, November 12th at 6:30 p.m. at the civic center. Finally, I want to thank the mayor for his proclamation on Hindu heritage heritage month um and Dvali and
wish all of those that do celebrate a happy Dvali from my family to theirs. That's all I have. Council President, >> thank you. Chief Pro, just uh from the community policing front, I'd just like to make everyone aware November 5th at the Civic Center
from 3 PM to 6 PM, the Little Falls Police Department has partnered with New York Life Insurance Company. Uh we're doing child identification and medical IDs. Um anecdotally, when I worked an ambulance or volunteered on an
ambulance, I go, we'd always ask people for their identification cards. And then the next question we'd ask is list of all your medications and people would be funneling through to wala. So for our senior citizen community, this will be one identification card that'll have all of that information on it. Has your
emergency contact, any allergies that you may possess. Uh it takes all pen fingerprints and um they'll obviously you'll have the card that you can just keep on you list your doctors. And then also the same thing for the children. a lot of um you know um identification
part for children. We really don't require it, but it's always a good idea around school age kids every couple years. Get a new photograph of them uh get their 10 fingerprints. So, we'll be uh hosting that and doing that for the community. >> Thank you, Chief.
>> Um this past uh Friday, we had our Harvest Moon uh dance. I want to thank the Councilman Habits and Councilman, I'm sorry, and the mayor and Vince Control for coming out. we kind of got overwhelmed. We had over 90 residents attend the event. Um we moved the event
to the afternoon think because the the concern of night driving uh and it was wildly successful. Uh so much so that the dancing didn't stop till 4:00. So it was really great. We did have one resident that left and I asked him why
he was leaving and he said, "Well, the DJ's not playing enough rock and roll." I said, "Okay, we'll try to meet that demand mayor next time we uh have the event." Um, so I want to thank everyone and my two committee people, Galina and Mark, for helping me out to put that together.

see uh our uh our chicken setup and uh we were uh uh pretty humbled by that that you would take the time to do that. Uh I my only participation in democracy has
been voting all this time. I've never addressed a council or anyone in in in government before and um it's been fun and and I think it's because uh you have been all so been so approachable and um
I I I loved living in Little Falls and now I I I like it even more. So, thank you so much for uh hearing us out. >> Thank you for your time this evening. Hey everyone, Adam Kasakowski, Broward
Town Road, neighbor of Carlos. Um, took a break from setting up my boy's bunk bed. Come and thank you guys for the same things that Carlos said. Uh, I just wanted to I don't I don't want to sound ungrateful and uh, you know, come off as
ungrateful. Uh, it just I'm 6, it's a tape measure. I'm 6'3. The ordinance states that it'll be 72 in the coupe. Maximum height. If you take five and five and a quarter uh floor joist, 3/4
plywood. Uh if you do uh uh roof rafters of uh let's say a 2x4 and then the half an inch uh plywood, we are at 52 in which is here the inside height of
the of the coupe. Uh so I just wanted to uh bring it to your attention. My four-year-old is already 46 in tall. Uh anyways, like Carlos said, uh very grateful for your attention and for your willingness to uh be flexible. Uh it's
going to make a great impact on my family and I hope more more people will be practicing self- sustainability in Little Falls right now. Thank you again. >> Thank you for your time this evening. just to go back to address that concern
of the coupe size to make it uh somewhat so that our department or staff would not be going uh we have a different a lot of differentiz lots in our township so to make it a little bit more easier for staff and to go around. Uh we really thought that that size was acceptable.
We understand uh the what you brought to our attention tonight. Again, you're welcome to come back in the future. Uh government is fluid. Just because we passed something tonight doesn't mean we could go back and revisit it in the future. Is there anyone else that would like to speak to the council?
Anyone in the chat? I see no one raising their hand. We're correct. >> Have a motion to close the public. I'm sorry. Oh, you you have to come to the podium, sir. We don't we don't answer from the audience. So, uh, playground concern
in, uh, not by the school, but the main one here by the Chevy dealership. >> I don't know. >> Uh, a lot of there are a lot of open uh,
just spaces on the higher levels of the construction and uh, last week. So, so you have climbing walls once the kid gets in. Barely any any of the kids I see I go there a lot with my kids and uh when
there's a you know commotion kids gathering by the by the entrance to the slide one kid almost pushed another one off and it's about this tall. It's probably 8t. So, that could have been uh if there could be some kind of guard installed or
maybe a chain uh something light duty so kids can at least see that there's a there's a barrier. Uh cuz I I just I just literally saw with my imagination kids falling off and spraining their neck or even worse. That's it.
>> Thank you for bringing that to our attention. We'll we'll take a good look at that. The mayor will ask staff to take a look at that recommendation to see what we could do.
