This Day in History: 1966-06-23
Most Mahwah residents who attended the Public Hearing on the route for the final section of Route 287 came away from the meeting with representatives of the State Highway Department convinced that the State had no intention of altering the proposed route through Mahwah. Among the speakers was James A. McFaul, executive secretary of the Bergen County Park Commission who protested the impact of the route on the Campgaw Reservation. The state officials did promise to study the cost of the suggested changes in the route made by Mahwah representatives. (Bristow)
