Public Announcements

CANCELLED - Movie/Sleepover in the Park

CANCELLED - We're sorry to announce that we have decided to cancel tomorrow's movie/sleepover in the park event due to predicted showers/possible thunderstorms. We wanted to give everyone enough notice to adjust plans. Stay tuned though, as we will look at the possibility of rescheduling in the next few weeks.

We're teaming up again with the Edgewood Foundation to bring you a Movie Night plus 'Sleepover in the Park' on Saturday, September 9. For our last summer feature, we are playing the classic adventure film 'Jumanji' (1995, starring Robin Williams). This film is rated PG, but contains some scenes which may be frightening for younger audiences.

Set up your tents, plus blankets/chairs and enjoy the movie, along with some water and snacks provided by the Foundation. Then stay all night in the park! Donuts, juice, and coffee will be available in the morning for those who stay. (for questions regarding the Sleepover event, please contact the Edgewood Foundation)

The movie starts at dusk. All Koenig Field rules must be followed. All children must be accompanied by an adult. Please check our Facebook page, Edgewood Borough Community Events, for updates and additional information.

Community Day ‘Thank You’

We appreciate everyone who worked, volunteered their time, and attended this year’s Community Day! We had a blast, and we hope you did too. 

Notice of Proposed Ordinance Eliminating Single Use Plastics

Edgewood Borough Council is considering enacting legislation that would prohibit the use of single use plastic bags, straws, Styrofoam and other plastics by commercial retail establishments for the purpose of transporting goods or food away from the establishment. Customers would have the option of carrying their goods in either recycled paper bags or bringing their own bags. The draft ordinance is available here. No date for enactment has been set.

Important Change to Recycling

As of January 1, 2021, Republic Services is no longer accepting any glass with curbside Recycling Collection. Glass has the tendency to break during collection and contaminates other recyclables with fine shards of glass.  Any contaminated items are forced to be rejected, and sent to a landfill. To continue recycling glass items, Republic Services has stationed a large blue dumpster in the parking lot behind the Edgewood Borough Building, 2 Race Street, for items to be dropped off at residents' convenience. This bin is located next to the paper collection bins.  

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please only bring your CLEAN glass recyclables, without lids, to place in the bin.
