1. Millburn Township Warns Of Fraudulent Emails Posing As Employees (patch.com) — Millburn officials are warning residents about fraudulent emails from people posing as township employees, pressuring recipients for money or personal information. Locals are urged to verify any suspicious messages by calling official phone numbers from the township website, avoid clicking links or attachments, and never share financial or banking details by email. The township stresses that community vigilance will help protect Millburn as a whole.
2. Resident Calls for Speed‑Limit Reduction and Noise Controls on Wyoming Avenue (tapinto.net) — A Millburn resident is urging the Township Committee to push Essex County for a lower 25 mph speed limit and noise controls on Wyoming Avenue, especially near Wyoming School and a nearby nursery school. She cited speeding on the downhill stretch, heavy truck traffic, and loud engine braking, and asked for clearer rules on truck weight limits and signage to protect children walking to school.
3. Uber Driver Threatened Passenger With Baseball Bat In Essex County, Police Say (patch.com) — Millburn police recently intervened on Essex Street near the Millburn Train Station after an officer saw a man waving a baseball bat and yelling at another man.
