Hey, I didn't see this thread but I did want to thank whoever is responsible for the revised township web site. I was able to quickly find the bulk pickup schedule and the map. I've been rather a crank about local web sites (school district, town) so I figured I should give credit where credit is due. Thanks! PS--Bulk pick up is one of the highlights of my homeowner year (always seem to have a lot of crud to get rid of) so I REALLY appreciate this. |

Your post jogged me to go look. Thanks! One nit - I found the schedule and I found the zone map, but I couldn't find any description or guidelines about when to put out (after 5pm the night before), what to put out, etc. Now, after 20 years of living here, I know the drill, but they really need to post that information for the newbies. |

Your post jogged me to relook, especially on the subject of newbies. One design change that could be good is a big bold link for newbies, that goes to page of links of interest especially to that population. This is in keeping with web site design ideas that suggest a navigation by user type in addition to topics. I still feel like a newbie, and there are some key topics that are always of interest like... 1. Recycling 2. Jitneys 3. Parking 4. Bulk pickup 5. What is the gov structure, etc. |

About the pick up map..I live on Tuscan Road, and the way the map appears, the dividing line between 8 and 7 is right on Tuscan Road, so it's hard to tell whether we are 7 or 8 or both. Any help would be appreciated. THANKS! |

They used to have a clearer map where you could tell exactly where the borderlines were with respect to the streets. Perhaps someone can dig it up and post it on the township site (?) |

ess, this is it: http://www.twp.maplewood.nj.us/ but the way I get to it is through MOL. I go to MOL home, wait for local links to pop up at the top and click on government. This way I'm still officially feeding my MOL habit.  |

I can never remember what it is, but googling Maplewood Township New Jersey finds it every time. |

I don't mind that Rutgers University is hosting the township website now, but they could do a better job of hiding it in the URLs that you go to when you click on something.
