Mayor Michael Gonnelli and the Town Council are happy to announce that complete renovation of the pickleball courts at Buchmuller Park will start in, or about, the week of October 15, 2023. The project is estimated to be completed well ahead of the Spring playing season. Please be advised that during construction, the area will be closed off and temporarily unavailable to residents.
Following the high demand and usage of the pickleball courts, the Town applied for, and received, a grant of $186,000 from the Hudson County Open Space Trust Fund. The Open Space Grant aids with acquisition of open space, improvements to existing parks and preserving historic resources to ensure that all residents have access to recreational and cultural opportunities within their communities. In the past year, the Town received $586,000 from the Open Space Grant for updates to the pickleball courts at Buchmuller Park and a complete refurbishment of the playing surface at Shetik Field.
Stay tuned for more updates on this and other improvements in our community.
