Subsidized Awning and Signage Power Washing
Help us help you keep Springfield Avenue looking clean!!
After a successful fall campaign, SAP once again has funds to help businesses with a cost share to power wash awnings and signs. We need to get a quote for all businesses looking to participate before we can provide the final cost share.
If you are interested in being part of this program, please fill out this form. (If you had your awning washed in the fall, you are not eligible for this round.)
We'll get back to you with the cost and you can decide then whether to participate.

Springfield Avenue Repaving and Repair
The Township will begin a complete repaving of the entire stretch of Springfield Avenue along with some curb, drainage, and sidewalk repair.
This work will begin in this spring.
The work will necessitate road closures in sections and sidewalk closures. Individual business entrances will not be blocked.
Now is a good time to sign up for NIXEL: Emergency updates from Maplewood Township
The Township uses NIXEL to text alerts about safety, road closures etc. It is the best way to stay up-to-date on emergency updates.
