How to Dispose of Hazardous Waste Monmouth County has a permanent Household Hazardous Waste Facility: Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday: 11 am - 4 pm Saturday: 8 am -4 pm The HHW Facility is closed on Mondays and Thursdays. For more information, call: 732-683-8686 ext 5210 or visit: Monmouth County Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Facility Monmouth County Reclamation Center Snow & Ice Control Salt Brine If the forecast is calling for an all snow event, the DPW will apply salt brine to the roads 24-to-36 hours before the storm. Salt brine is a highly concentrated mixture of salt and water. This solution will dry to the road preventing the snow from bonding to the roadway. Salt Crystals The Borough applies salt to the roadways when snow/ice begins to adhere to the surface of the road. Once plowing is complete, depending on conditions the DPW may apply salt once again. Plowing Once there is approximately 2-3 inches of snow on the road surface plowing starts. The Borough attempts to clear the road to the curb whenever possible. Once a snow event ends, the road clearing must continue. This process will push snow further to the curb. During this process, it is unfortunate – but unavoidable, that driveways can be blocked by snow. The residents can assist us in this process by: Not parking on the roads until plowing is complete. Not throwing snow that is shoveled / snow-blown into the roadway. Not plowing their driveways onto the road surface (please pass this information on to your private plowing company). Removing all basketball hoops. Keeping all drains clear for melting snow. Shoveling Tip When shoveling, pile the majority of the snow to the left of your driveway as you face your house. This helps when the plows come by because there will be less snow to be plowed in front of your driveway. Residents' mailboxes and supports must be installed and maintained to withstand the rigors of snow removal. DPW staff investigates each complaint. If an inspection shows that the mailbox was hit by the plow equipment a standard mailbox will be installed. If inspections show the mailbox was damaged by the snow coming off the plow, the Borough will NOT be responsible for replacement. County roads are maintained by the Monmouth County Highway Department, please contact them directly with any issues. Sewer & Wastewater NO WIPES of any kind should be flushed down the drain. (Even if the packaging says they are flushable!) Do not dump grease down the drain. Wipes and grease cost taxpayers dollars to repair clogged pipes, damaged pumps, and resulting problems with the infrastructure. What should I do if I have a sewer problem? The Rumson Sewer / Wastewater Department maintains the Borough sanitary sewer system. We can assist and in some cases help you to resolve your sewer problem, but first you need to identify what the problem is.

Below is a list of basic questions that can help is help you. Are your drains running slower the normal or not draining at all? What part of your house is having the problem (s)? Is there a discharge of sewage inside or outside your house? When did the problem start? Have you ever had the problem before? If you’re having a sewer related problem Monday – Friday between the hours of 7am – 3:30pm, contact the Rumson Public Works at (732) 842-8941. If your problem is after 3:30pm, weekend and or holiday, contact the Rumson Police Department at (732) 842-0500.

During this period, Borough of Rumson was experiencing three times its normal daily flow of sewage. The Borough of Rumson experienced intermittent, short-duration sewer discharges at one location on Shrewsbury Drive over the course of eight days in late March and early April due to the record setting rainfall. The Borough reported the discharge to NJDEP and responded immediately to the NJDEP’s initial request for information. The Borough then received a standard Violation Notice related to the reported discharges. Following NJDEP protocol, the Borough Engineer responded within 14 business days of the Violation Notice, summarizing the event in question, outlining the extensive actions the Borough took to address the situation. In addition, the Borough Engineer outlined what was being done to proactively address impacts of future record setting rainfall events. The Borough Engineer also outlined key steps the Borough has been taking to address groundwater infiltration, the importance of eliminating illicit connections and rehabilitating the entire Rumson sanitary sewer system. Through subsequent discussions with the NJDEP, NJDEP expressed satisfaction with the Borough’s proactive approach. While the Borough continued to work internally on solutions to minimize future risk, the Borough commissioned a study by an outside engineering firm with experience in wastewater system management to conduct a complete evaluation of the Borough's wastewater operations in August of this year. Residents are once again encouraged to disconnect sump pumps, yard drains and roof leaders from their sewer lines to help reduce wastewater flow. These types of illicit connections are illegal and contributed to the high flows that the Borough experienced in April. Leaf & Brush Collection Hazardous Waste Snow & Ice Control Sewer & Wastewater

River Road – or the “clock” house – has been restored with extraordinary precision and detail by homeowners Christian and Lynda Cloud, who bought the property in 2020. Since moving in, the Clouds have put on a custom handcrafted diamond copper roof over the turret; new E. Howard replica working clocktower and all-new cedar wood siding.

Congratulations! 18 Allen Street Broeck and Marlis Steadman – Stewardship Our second award recognizes the continued passion of maintaining and improving an historic Rumson home. Artists Broeck and Marlis Steadman bought 18 Allen Street – a stones throw from here – more than 30 years ago. Built in 1920, it’s the purple Victorian with a flowing garden out front. Broeke and Marlis have spent years researching the history of their home and maintaining decorative structures. The porch was meticulously restored to exact original specifications and the original blacksmith’s chimney in Marlis’ studio has been preserved. The Steadmans prove that one’s home is truly one’s castle. Our commission and the town thanks them dearly. This year’s winner for Stewardship are Broeck and Marlis Steadman for 18 Allen Street. Congratulations! 2022 Award Winners 59 Buena Vista Avenue Jennifer and Andrew Marrus – Restoration and Rehabilitation Under architect E. Harris James, the French Norman style home located at 59 Buena Vista Avenue, which was built in 1893, has been carefully preserved, and in some circumstances replicated, by the Marrus family. It was not long after purchasing the home in 2018 that the Marrus family began its thoughtful and careful renovations to preserve the integrity and history of the Jacob Schiff estate, which was originally a stable and carriage house before being converted to a residential home in the 1950s. The clock tower and courtyard, with original stonework, sits centered between the north and the south buildings of the property. The north building was a former stable with staff apartments, while the south building was the original Schiff Carriage House. 2019 Award Winners 39 First StreetKaren and Bob Austin – Stewardship The Stewardship Award is defined as the effective ongoing maintenance and care of properties of historic and/or architectural significance. Each year the Rumson Historic Preservation Commission honors a project and/or individual for their contribution to the preservation of Rumson’s historic resources. For an historic property to be eligible, it must be listed on the Historic Property Inventory located on the Borough web site. Nominations for the award are judged on the basis of exterior appearance only. The home was built about 1865, and for years Mr. Austin’s grandparents and family traveled by steamboat from Hoboken to rent this house for the summer. In 1924, Mr. Austin’s grandmother, then a widow, purchased the home. It was passed down to his father and then to himself. He and his wife have restored the interior in keeping the age of the house, with open beam ceilings, plank floors and fireplace. The exterior has been shingled over clapboard and period-style 6-over-6 windows added. An addition was added to the north side of the house. Most recently, a brick walkway and antique iron gate at the front of the house was added to the period style. 2018 Award Winners 86 Buena Vista Avenue – “Box Lawn” John and Kristen Hall – Restoration/Rehabilitation Older structures where major original features have been carefully preserved or replicated for original use John and Kristen purchased 86 Buena Vista Avenue, also known as “Box Lawn” in 2013 Built in the 1880s, Box Lawn was primarily a summer home By 2013, the exterior had fallen into extreme disrepair. Exterior siding was removed by the Halls and new cedar shingles installed on the entire home and garage. New wooden windows installed and metal sliding doors were replaced with period wooden doors. Exterior iron railings were removed and replaced with a weather resistance engineered wood railings to match the original wooden railing of the wrap around porches. In order to gain access to the veranda, custom mahogany storm doors were made to replace the fixed storm windows that covered the original chestnut doors in the parlor. Additionally, there has been extensive renovation on the interior of the home and new landscaping on the property. The Commission is pleased to have residents who are committed to preserving our historic properties Roberta H.

Bobbie recently authored the book “Legendary Locals of Rumson” She continues to be a valuable resource to the Historic Preservation Commission in our work and is a wealth of information! The Commission wishes to thank Bobbie for her continued support and her dedication to the preservation of Rumson’s history. 2017 Award Winners Randall Gabrielan – Preservation Champion Turned his avocation of local history into a second career. Has written dozens of historical books, numerous article and research reports that include many individual properties in Rumson. Has served over 13 years as Executive Director of the Monmouth County Historical Commission in Freehold is currently Commission Vice-Chair. Mr. Gabrielan also serves as the County’s appointed historian. When our Commission first embarked on the mission to catalog and review our town’s inventory of historic and significant buildings it was a large undertaking to say the least. Mr. Gabrielan’s books were invaluable as a resource, both as a reference and an architectural style guide. We owe Mr Gabrielan a great debt of gratitude for the passion and commitment to the history of not only Rumson, but many of our surrounding towns. 90 West River Road John and Marjorie Tedesco – Stewardship Property at 90 West River Road is owned by John and Marjorie Tedesco. Three buildings dating back to 1889 exist on the property: Carriage House/Ballroom, working Carousel in the old stables and a Guest House containing a private chapel. Architect for the estate was William Welles Bosworth of Bosworth & Holden in New York, who designed the buildings for Edwin Drexel Godfrey. Godfrey who was tied by marriage to the Hoaglands who owned Auldwood , a magnifient estate in Rumson. While the original main house on the property was lost in a fire, the Tedesco’s rebuilt a beautiful home on the property twenty-five years ago. Fortunately, the 1889 buildings remained and have been painstakingly restored and maintained by the Tedesco’s. Rumson is fortunate for the dedication and commitment of stewardship that has preserved a part of Rumson history when large and magnificent estates were abundant. 30 Lafayette Street Jon and Lauren Carras – Sympathetic/Sensitive Addition 30 Lafayette Street in Rumson is a Victorian home built in 1887. When Jon and Lauren Carras bought it in 2011, the home had fallen into disrepair. The plaster walls were caving in, the porch was starting to collapse and the home needed a total gut renovation. Looking to expand the home, the Carras’ designed an addition that would seamlessly incorporate a third turret on the back of the house to mirror the two original ones on the front of the house. The home was stripped of all siding and the addition was added to the back of the home. Then new cedar shingles were put up so that the home had a uniform look that would age appropriately and wouldn’t look like an addition was ever done in the first place. As a finishing touch, gaslights were added on both sides of the original front door to flicker beneath the stained glass windows that may have been taken out of a local church when the home was being built. The Historic Preservation Commission would also like to thank Jon and Lauren Carras and John and Marjorie Tedesco for their hospitality and tours of their respective properties.
