In response to the anticipated conditions that Hurricane Sandy is predicted to bring to this area, the City of Clifton has activated its Office of Emergency Management. At this time, there are no travel restrictions, however, officials are urging all residents to seek shelter in their homes during this storm and to avoid all unneccessary travel - both pedestrian and vehicular. A shelter has been set up at the Senior Barn located off of Linzenbold Drive (within the municipal complex) and will be available to all residents whose homes have become uninhabitable or to anyone in need. Also, if necessary, Clifton City Hall is open and will remain accessible to those in need throughout the storm.
The Clifton Department of Public Works will be addressing issues involving clogged drains and downed trees. To report issues like these or any incidents of a non-emergent nature, contact 973-470-5911. The "911" system should only be utilized for true emergencies.
NEVER TOUCH ANY WIRE THAT HAS FALLEN TO THE GROUND. The Clifton Fire Deparment will be working in conjunction with PSE&G and will be responsible for dealing with these incidents in their entirety,
