History

Glen Rock was formed on September 14, 1894, from portions of Ridgewood Township and Saddle River Township, "that being the year the county went crazy on boroughs."[11][12] Glen Rock was settled around an enormous rock left by retreating glaciers in a small valley (glen). From a 1985 article in The New York Times, "Glen Rock is named for a 570-ton boulder, believed to have been deposited by a glacier, that stands at the northern end of Rock Road, the town's main street. Called Pamachapura, or Stone from Heaven, by the Delaware (Lenape) Indians, it served as a base for Indian signal fires and later as a trail marker for colonists."[13]

Government

Local government

Glen Rock is governed under the Borough form of New Jersey municipal government. The government consists of a Mayor and a Borough Council comprising six council members, with all positions elected at large. A Mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office and only votes to break a tie. The Borough Council consists of six members elected to serve three-year terms on a staggered basis, with two seats coming up for election each year.[3] The council appoints a professional borough administrator who is the Chief Administrative Officer of the Borough, responsible to the Mayor and Council.

As of 2012, the Mayor of Glen Rock is John van Keuren (R, term ends December 31, 2014). Members of the Borough Council are Council President Carmine Nogara (Licenses & Franchises), Pamela Biggs (Building Development & Public Property), Michael O'Hagan (Public Safety), Joan Orseck (Parks, Public Grounds & Recreation), Art Pazan (Revenue & Finance) and Mary Jane Surrago (Public Works).[19]

Glen Rock Borough Government recognizes an annual "Poverty Awareness Week." The community comes together for an annual "Project" to combat extreme global poverty. In 2007 the community built a Habitat House in Paterson, New Jersey (the second home built by Glen Rock residents), and the community was honored as Paterson Habitat's Volunteers of the Year (a first for a community). In 2008 the Borough came together for the Water for Africa Music Festival. The event raised the funds to pay for two Roundabout PlayPump water systems in sub-Saharan Africa.[20] In 2009, the community continued its battle against poverty, raising funds to battle malaria in hurricane-ravaged Haiti.

The Borough government has declared Glen Rock a sustainable community, a "Green Up" policy that reflects a commitment to protecting the borough's trees, water and general environment. Shade trees are provided at no cost annually to citizens with cooperation from the DPW.
