📰 News we're reading

• Ready for the Annual Fall Raking Ritual? (TAPinto.net) — South Brunswick is gearing up for its annual curbside leaf collection, with township crews making three passes through each of four zones from late October through late December. Residents must rake leaves to the curb by 7:30 a.m. on their area's first pickup date, avoid streets and catch basins, and keep bags, rocks, and brush out. Bagged leaves can also be dropped at the brush site behind Sondek Park.
   

• Who Is the Operator of the Controversial Data Center Next to Princeton? Bloomberg, It Appears (TAPinto.net) — South Brunswick residents finally have a clearer picture of who's behind the controversial Route 1 data center: state environmental filings point to Bloomberg LP as the facility's operator. The article traces the complex web of LLCs, diesel-fueled backup generators, and NJDEP permits that have fueled public mistrust, while noting officials extended the air-permit comment deadline after strong pushback from South Brunswick, Princeton, and nearby communities.
   

• Entries Breakdown: XC Fall Classic (milesplit.com) — South Brunswick High School's boys cross-country team is projected to win the Varsity 5K at the XC Fall Classic, edging out Princeton and Bernards in the team scores. Senior Alexander Sencic is seeded second overall with a strong recent personal record, putting South Brunswick runners in a promising position heading into the meet.
