Brief
History
This
is Rockleigh, New Jersey—population approximately
500. Here you may stroll colonial roads where Revolutionary troops
once marched. Rockleigh’s landmarks lie within a 246.45 acre historic
district, and lie adjacent to the historic district of Palisades,
New York. We are traditionally connected to this area by Rockleigh

between patriot and Tory. [Read

Leaf
Removal
As a reminder, the Borough of Rockleigh does not provide leaf pick-up. It is the responsibility of each homeowner/landscaper to see that the leaves are removed or composted. If leaves are being removed by your landscaper they must be picked up and removed prior to your landscaper leaving the property. In addition, landscapers’ trailers are not to be left on any Borough Street unattended or unattached. Homeowners/landscapers are not to blow leaves onto streets, public property or that of your neighbors. (As per Borough Ordinance 07-07). Thank you for your cooperation. |
