It’s high time this municipality has received a little funding help. Essex County has announced three local organizations will be the recipients of grants totaling $303,000. The funds are being disbursed through the county’s 2006 Open Space Local Aid Program and will come from the Open Space Trust Fund, with the amounts that are dis- tributed to be matched by the recipients. The decision to disburse the funds will have far-reach- ing impact. Greenwood Gardens will receive assistance in its efforts to revamp its facilities and restore what is an his- toric treasure in this community. The Gardens will receive $175,000. The Cora Hartshorn Arboretum and Bird Sanctuary will be able to restore walking trails that wind through the woodlands on its property. The trails have long been in disrepair. The arboretum will receive $64,000. The Millburn Department of Recreation will now be able to embark upon a restoration of Taylor Park, and create new recreational space for basketball, roller hock- ey, volleyball and ice skating activities. The department will receive $64,000. In awarding the grants, Essex County Executive Joseph N. DiVincenzo and the Open Space Trust Fund trustees have demonstrated an understanding of the value of pre- serving community resources. They are to be commend- ed for their foresight. The state Department of Transportation also is demon- strating some much-appreciated visionary thinking. It has awarded a grant in the amount of $150,000 to be used to renovate the Short Hills train station.

Fix any loose doorknobs, popped screen doors, and loose grout around the tub and shower. A coat of fresh paint can work wonders to dress up a house. Wash the windows, hang a pret- ty plant from the bathroom skylight, and clean out the closets. Arrange the furniture to make the room look larger. If the rooms look cluttered, put your extra furniture into storage. You can brighten up a room by increasing the wattage of the light bulbs. Going the extra mile to showcase your home will pay significant dividends when it’s time to show it to buyers. The less imagination people must bring with them when they look at your house, the greater your chances of selling your home quickly and for top dollar.
