Hackensack – The Bergen County Board of Chosen Freeholders have put together a video, which provides helpful voting information to Bergen County residents. This year - with few exceptions - Bergen County residents will be voting exclusively by mail. Working in conjunction with local election officials, the Freeholders compiled answers to the most frequently asked questions surrounding voting by mail. It is the goal of the Freeholders to increase turnout for the November election. It is their belief that regardless of which candidates residents choose, our Democracy is best served when we have an active and engaged electorate.

The video is available for cross-posting and embedding from the URL below.

Mayor LaBruno and The Dumont Council unanimously supported a resolution opening Dumont Borough Hall to the public. Dumont Borough Hall is now open to the public by appointment only.

• Appointments can be made Monday - Friday between the hours of 9:30 AM – 11:30 AM. We still encourage all residents to conduct as much borough business remotely as possible.
• Entry to Borough Hall will be limited to the first floor. 
• All visitors must sign in, wear a face mask and have a body temperature under 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit to enter Borough Hall. Thermal scanners will ensure that everyone entering Borough Hall meets that criteria.
• Every department is by appointment only so please make sure you visit the department you have an appointment for and then exit the building.
• The Dixon Homestead has also reopened with hybrid service. Door side service is available to Dumont resident’s weekday mornings from 10:00am to 1:00pm. In-person service is available from 1:30pm until closing, with some service limitations. For details about services and new visitor requirements visit dumontlibrary.org/reopening or call 201-384-2030.

Due to the current COVID-19 public health crisis, solicitors are discouraged from knocking on our residents’ doors.  The Borough has a “No-knock” ordinance in place. 

Please fill out the attached request for a “No-knock” sticker and call Cathy Romeo at 201-387-5027 for an appointment to pick one up.
