Winter Storm Arrival - Tomorrow Afternoon

by mendhamtwpwebupdates＠lists.cit-e.net

The Mendham Township Office of Emergency Management (OEM), Department of Public Works (DPW), and our first responder organizations are monitoring the incoming storm that is set to arrive mid to late afternoon tomorrow - Wednesday, December 16th. We currently expect 9-14 inches of snowfall with heavy winds. Although the storm is expected to subside on Thursday, there will likely be a re-freeze cycle throughout the weekend. Starting tomorrow at 2pm, please do your best to stay off the roads. Travel could be extremely difficult, and the heavy winds could lead to downed trees and possible power outages. If you notice a downed power line or a tree blocking the road, do not go near it, and report it immediately by calling the police non-emergency number at: (973) 543-2581 press 0 to speak to an operator or email: mendhamtwpoem(a)gmail.com. Please reserve calling 911 for emergency situations. If you lose power, report your outage to JCP&L directly by calling 1-888-LIGHTSS (1-888-544-4877), or visiting www.rstenergycorp.com and clicking the “Report Outage” link on www.firstenergycorp.com<http://www.firstenergycorp.com/>, or by texting out to 544487. JCP&L is prepared to activate its storm response and Incident Command System plans and has crews standing by ready to help. Reminder: Generators can be a lifesaver during power outages, but can also be dangerous if used or installed improperly. Never use a portable generator inside the house or a closed garage. Additionally, do not use gas stoves, kerosene heaters or other open flame heat sources to keep warm. These sources of heat can cause deadly carbon monoxide gas to build up in your home. If you need assistance or someone to check on a community member, please email the Mendham Township Office of Emergency Management at: mendhamtwpoem(a)gmail.com. Stay Safe, Sarah Neibart Mayor, Mendham Township

Notice Concerning Your Electric Supply

by mendhamtwpwebupdates＠lists.cit-e.net

Last week you should have received a letter from Jersey Central Power and Light (JCP&L) about the ending of a contract with IDT Energy. That letter is an informational notice, and you do not need to take any action. This past year, Mendham Township took advantage of a state law that allows us to establish a Community Energy Aggregation Program. This program permits the aggregation of all residential customers within participating municipalities for the purpose of competitively purchasing electricity at rates lower than are currently available from our electric utility, JCP&L. Mendham Township combined the electricity consumption of all residential customers in conjunction with four other towns and received competitive bids from the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities licensed suppliers to provide this electricity supply service and secure better rates for our residents. The supplier that won the bid for the Hunterdon Area Energy Cooperative (HAEC), which Mendham Township is a part of, was IDT energy. Over the last year, IDT has been supplying your power, and we are pleased that this program will be returning at a new rate of $0.0867/kWh for a term of 9 months effective March 2021. Unfortunately, the HAEC could not get all the contracts to align, so for the months of January and February, JCP&L will be providing your power and starting again in March 2021, IDT will be supplying your energy again. You do not need to take any action and your electric service will continue without interruption (unless you want to opt-out of the program). IDT energy is starting a new program that offers residents the opportunity to select a 100% renewable energy option. If you have questions about this information, please call the program’s Customer Care Team at 1-866-688-5197 or email info(a)commercialutility.com. Updated program information is provided on the HAEC’s web page at www.njaggregation.us/HAEC. You will receive a more extensive mailing in January 2021 with complete details about the HAEC’s new contract and the new program, including frequently asked questions, dates and times for outreach presentations, and methods you can use to opt-out of the program should you not wish to participate.

Help Us Decorate Our Tree!

by mendhamtwpwebupdates＠lists.cit-e.net

Thanks to the incredible work of our Mendham Township Recreation Department, Department of Public Works, Fire Department, and Mendham Borough Fire Department, we have lights on the 80-foot tree outside of Town Hall! It was a community effort, and we are so excited to see the tree all lit up for the holidays! Upon discussion with our Recreation Director David, it seems the tree is missing something... and we could use your help! We would love it if Mendham residents have any extra ornaments laying around to donate to our tree! Feel free to come by at any time and hang an ornament. Looking forward to lighting our menorah and tree this weekend!
