• West Milford sets new sports fees as budget pressures mount. See costs (northjersey.com) — West Milford high school athletes will now pay between $100 and $200 per sport, with new annual caps, as the Board of Education raises athletic fees to help close a budget gap. District officials are also weighing closing Paradise Knoll Elementary and trimming sports expenses, while promising to track costs by team and revisit the fee tiers after this school year.
   

• Hawthorne Signs 10-Year Public Health Partnership With County (tapinto.net) — Passaic County has signed a new 10-year deal to serve as Hawthorne’s public health agency, expanding a shared-services model already used by West Milford and several neighboring towns. For local residents, it underscores that restaurant inspections, immunizations, and other health protections here are part of a broader county-run system aimed at stretching tax dollars while maintaining services.
