Township Working With Local Businesses

The Township Committee, the Downtown Management Corporation, and the Parks and Recreation Department continue working with local business owners to find opportunities so they can increase service to their customers and clients during this Pandemic emergency. Parking lots, streets, and parks are doing double duty as sites for restaurants, yoga classes, dance studios, fitness centers, and musical entertainment. In a few days, parklets will be completed and open throughout the downtown allowing restaurants to increase outdoor dining.
    We thank everyone for the support and encouragement to all of our Cranford businesses.
