Township Creates New Voting Districts

The township unveiled a new map with two additional voting districts following a redistricting by the county.

The Bergen County Superintendent of Elections mailed letters recently to registered voters in the new districts, according to township officials. The township has urged voters to carefully read their sample ballots when they are received in the mail in May and October for their voting districts and voting locations.

Bergen County redistricts its municipal voting districts when more than 1,500 voters are registered in a voting district.

While the change may shift where some will be voting this election cycle, recycling collection and curbside leaf collection will remain unchanged.  

Here are the details of the change from the Township of Wyckoff:

The Bergen County Board of Elections has created Election District 9 from areas previously included in District 3 and District 7.

Starting in January 2013, District 9 and District 10 will be listed in the Street Index for municipal services including voting, curbside recycling collections and Spring & Fall leaf collections.
