CLARK, NJ - Clark Township is urging residents to rely on official communication channels after learning that some community members may have mistaken a privately operated app and social media presence called "Clark Connection" for an official Township outlet.
The Township said Clark Connection, while sharing information about Clark and the surrounding community, is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or managed by municipal government.
For accurate information on local news, emergency alerts, public notices, meeting updates and recreation programs, the Township directed residents to its official platforms: the website at ourclark.com, and official accounts on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
"As electronic media continues to evolve, residents are encouraged to verify the source of information before assuming it represents an official position, announcement, or communication from the Township," officials said.
