• New Jersey residents demand action as 'constant flooding' leaves streets underwater (thecooldown.com) — Persistent flooding is plaguing a cluster of Little Falls homes, where residents say clogged drains and high river levels keep sending stormwater into their streets and yards. At a recent council meeting, neighbors pressed township officials for a permanent fix, while Mayor James Damiano said Little Falls crews have repeatedly cleared debris and installed cameras but still need Passaic County’s help to resolve the drainage problem. 
• A Running List of Movies + TV Shows Filming in New Jersey in 2026 (thelocalgirl.com) — Little Falls briefly steps into the spotlight as a filming location for the independent drama Exit Right, which shot scenes in town on May 5th alongside larger setups in Ridgewood. The statewide roundup highlights how New Jersey’s neighborhoods, including Little Falls, are drawing major film and TV productions and big-name stars throughout 2026, potentially boosting local visibility and on-location spending.
