What a bullshit article you didn’t even mention Nutley and we have 3 confirmed cases
Nutley is not in Bergen County
Angry citizenry
We all need to take a breath..
People are worried about their jobs
And feeding their kids
Be good or better to each other
This too shall pass
97 in Teaneck…wow…can we explain that…?
Does Bergen need this many municipalities? Seems like a nightmare.
This shits going to hit the fan.
Yea, he supports the Gov after getting his ass handed to him. Put a cap on your ego Mr. County Executive. Your continued blathering of conflicting information is helping NO ONE. The Governor is in charge, NOT YOU.
I have petitioned the Governor to re-assign Nutley to Bergen County. Sorry Essex, it’s the right thing to do.
