The Verona Environmental Commission was
established by the Township of Verona as part of Ord. 9-92 on
August 3, 1992. It was established "for the protection ,
development or use of natural resources, including water
resources, within the territorial limits of the Township".
Its seven members, one of whom is also a member of the Planning
Board, and two alternates make recommendations to the Town
Council and the Planning Board concerning open space
preservation, water resource management, air pollution control,
solid waste management, noise control, soil and landscape
protection, and the protection of flora and fauna in general.
The Verona Environmental Commission also reviews all
applications sent to the Planning Board and the Board of
Adjustment to evaluate their impact on the environment. The
Commission interacts with neighboring community environmental
commissions and the Essex County Environmental Center. The
Verona Environmental Commission plays a role of acting to
protect and maintain our Township's environmental resources for
health and well being of present and future residents.
