The Assessor’s inspector may visit your property if the property owner or their contractor obtained a building permit to build a new building, or update, improve, expand, remodel, redecorate, rehab and/or demolish an existing building located in Haddon Heights. Please cooperate with the Assessor’s inspector who will perform an interior and exterior examination of your home or business, and request information to confirm the type of work done, or to be done, the cost of the project, and the date the job was, or is to be completed. This inspection is in addition to any inspection(s) required by the Haddon Heights Building Inspection Department. The inspector will visit your property unannounced in the day, early evening, or on a Saturday. This method of inspection is very cost effective and I greatly appreciate your help allowing the inspector to collect the data required. The inspectors who work for the Tax Assessor’s office are Judith Shoemaker (Judi), Jeffery Scott Pierson (Scott), and myself. Each inspector will wear an official Haddon Heights Borough ID Badge. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to call Tax Assessor’s Office at (856) 547-7164 ex 33. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation with the inspection process.

10 The Heights Report Oct. & Nov. 2016 Haddon Heights Good Neighbors Throw kindness around like it was confetti -Author Unknown When you read this quote, you start to understand how the Haddon Heights Good Neighbors Program operates. This fiscal year, we have helped over 9 families (21 individuals) with rent, security deposits, gift cards, and utility bills. In addition, we distributed 20 John’s Friendly Market food certificates to 12 families for Thanksgiving or Christmas. In order to help spread our kindness with confetti, we work with other town organizations including Saint Vincent de Paul of St. Rose, the Haddon Heights Public School nurse, and the Sons of Italy. “Throwing kindness” is so much fun when it helps so many people. Haddon Heights Good Neighbors, HHGN, was formed in 1979 to provide short-term financial assistance of a material nature to residents in need. As an organization of the people, by the people, and for the people of Haddon Heights, our goal is to help members of our town when they are struggling. After all, shouldn’t a sense of community come with a sense of responsibility? One way of helping HHGN to accomplish its goal is to join the organization. We typically meet the 1st Wednesday of January, May, September, and November. Meetings are held in Borough Hall at 7:00 PM. New members are always welcome. Another way to help is make a donation. Your contribution will be used to assist residents in our community and whether it goes toward rent, utilities, groceries, or home repairs, we investigate every request and independently determine its worthiness. Our hands-on approach ensures that money goes where it is needed the most. During October, you will be receiving our yearly fund drive letter. Please make a contribution and help us continue to “throw kindness as if it were confetti.” No donation is too small.

WHO ARE THE HADDON HEIGHTS GOOD NEIGHBORS? YOU ARE. Haddon Heights Good Neighbors is a non-profit, non-sectarian, non-political organization. It has never had a paid employee or officer. All work is done by volunteers, and anyone who makes a donation is a member. No donation is too small and no act of kindness is too inconsequential! There are a couple of ways you can make a donation. You may use PayPal with the following link: http://www.hhgoodneighbors.org/donate.html Or, if you wish to make a donation by check, please make the check out to HHGN, and mail it to: 625 Station Avenue, Haddon Heights, NJ 08035 856-546-6677 www.hhgoodneighbors.org Like us on Facebook!

16 The Heights Report Oct. & Nov. 2016 Storm Water Pollution Storm water pollution is one of N.J.’s biggest threats to clean and plentiful water. With everyone’s help we can share the responsibility by making small, easy changes in our everyday lives. There are many common pollutants that we can help keep out of the storm water. This all adds up to cleaner water and it also saves on the high cost of cleaning up once the water is dirty. Storm water is water that is generated when precipitation from rain and snow melt. It flows over land or impervious surfaces such as paved roads and parking lots and does not seep into the ground. This run off transports pollutants such as trash, grass, and other things which gather on these surfaces. The water and debris make their way to inlets and then flooding will occur. As a resident, business, or other member of the Haddon Heights community, it is important to know these easy things you can do every day to protect our water. • Properly use and dispose of hazardous products (there are hazardous waste recycling days that are normally set up each year, please contact the Public Works Department for a list of those days 856-546-2580) • Keep pollution out of storm drains (do not let sewage or other wastes flow into a storm water system) • Clean up after your pet (pet waste pollutes our waters when left on the ground, animal waste contains high concentration of nutrients as well as bacteria and disease-causing microorganisms that can cause problems) • Don’t litter • Dispose of yard waste properly • Limit your use of fertilizers and pesticides Thank you for doing your part to keep Haddon Heights waters clean.

Most residents do not know that the caps that come on so many products such as milk cartons, detergent containers and liquids such as soda and water cannot be put in the recycling bucket. To help keep these caps out of the landfill waste, Sustainable Haddon Heights is now collecting them. Please save the caps for the group and bring them to the farmers’ market or to the library both now as well as after the market closes the end of October. This is the information about the program: The Ecocap Movement, a Japanese nonprofit organization (NPO) in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, established in 2007, has been engaged in the donation of polio vaccines to children in developing countries through the collection and sale of plastic bottle caps to recycling companies. Schools, local governments and companies collect caps and bring them to community organizations specified by the NPO. When Ecocap receives a certain amount of caps, the caps are sold to recycling companies. The profits are then donated to Japan Committee Vaccines for the World’s Children (JCV) to buy vaccines. Every 800 caps pay for one vaccination, which costs 20 yen (about U.S.$0.20). Currently, a large amount of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles are used. However, caps are made from plastics with different hardness, allowing them to attach firmly to the bottles. Because materials for caps are different from the PET bottles, they cannot be recycled together. When caps are mixed with other garbage, they release carbon dioxide during combustion, and soil contamination after burial. By collecting caps separately and recycling them, they can be reused in concrete panels, ballpoint pens and chopsticks. Web address: http://www.japanfs.org/en/news/archives/news_ id028897.html Sustainable Haddon Heights invites you to visit them every Sunday from 9:30 am until 1pm at their booth “Sundays near Station with Sustainable Haddon Heights” located in the Haddon Heights Farmers’ Market. The group will be having demonstrations on various aspects of sustainability and gardening. Currently, the “Stop Using Plastic Bags” project is underway. Stop by the table after you make your purchases at the market. For each reusable bag you have used, receive an entry into the weekly contest to win a reusable produce bag. Due to demand for the bag, they now also have them for a donation of $3, less than cost, for anyone who wants them. Many people use Be on the Lookout for the Plastic Bag Monster!
