Lincoln Park - March 8, 2018

DPW 

The Lincoln Park Department of Public Works has been working around the clock with snow removal, fallen trees and safety issues surrounding downed wires.  This is a massive undertaking and we appreciate your patience and understanding with our efforts.

There have been multiple reports of downed trees. If you live near or encounter downed power lines or utility poles, please STAY AWAY, as they may still be energized and very dangerous. 

While we understand that the downed trees are an issue, please refrain from bringing them to the curb at this time. Once the snow clean-up is complete, we will address the broken limbs and collection dates.

If you are using a generator, please make sure it is placed outside of your home and well ventilated to prevent against any carbon monoxide exposure.

For immediate assistance please contact the Lincoln Park Police. (973)694-5533
