🚨 Public Notice: Deceased Animal Reporting

We understand that discovering a deceased animal can be unpleasant. If you see a dead animal on the roadway or public property within the City of Passaic, NJ, please follow these steps:

1️⃣ Call the City of Passaic Animal Shelter☎️ 973-365-5669

2️⃣ If there’s no answer, please leave a voicemail! Our Animal Care & Control Officers are often out on patrol and we will return your call as soon as possible.

3️⃣ If you are unable to reach the shelter, you may then contact the Passaic Police Department Non-Emergency line ☎️ 973-365-3900 for assistance, and they will reach out to our ACO’s directly.

📚 Why it’s important: Reporting deceased animals helps keep our community clean, prevents the spread of disease, and ensures proper and respectful removal.

Thank you for helping us keep Passaic safe and sanitary for everyone!

Let’s be real — getting seen today isn’t easy.
You can have the best product, the best heart, or the best idea in the world… but if people don’t know you exist, it’s like shouting in an empty room.

That’s why I started offering Strategy Consultations — to help business owners, creatives, and community leaders around Passaic get visible and stay visible.

This isn’t a “talk for an hour and forget about it” type of session. You walk away with:
✅ A full visibility audit of your platforms
✅ A 30-day content strategy blueprint
✅ Local leverage tactics to tap into Passaic’s heartbeat — schools, churches, barbershops, Latinx businesses — the places that really move people
✅ And a personal brand polish so your message lands with power and authenticity.

Oh, and because we believe in doing, not just talking — you’ll also get 3 custom pieces of content included, free.

We’ll sit down for 90 minutes — in-person or virtual — and map out how to take your presence from quiet to consistent.
You’ll even get a follow-up check-in two weeks later to make sure you’re moving in the right direction.

💵 Launch Offer: $149.99 + tax (Regular $250)
Limited to 10 clients.
Available in English or Spanish.

Because visibility isn’t luck — it’s strategy.

A Special Moment for Winston 🐾

Winston is a gentle senior Pitbull mix who has been with us since April 2024, spending over 580 days waiting patiently for someone to open their heart to him.

Today something truly special happened. A generous supporter made a heartfelt donation to cover Winston’s entire adoption fee. This incredible act of kindness gives him the best chance yet at finding the loving home he deserves. ❤️

Before coming into our care, Winston had a bite on a small dog. Since then our team has been working tirelessly to find him a safe and understanding home where he can truly thrive. He would do best in a calm environment without small dogs where he can enjoy his golden years surrounded by love, comfort, and companionship.

Come meet this sweet soul at the City of Passaic Animal Shelter and see why everyone who meets him instantly falls in love.

Hey Passaic,

The Food Desert Relief Supermarket Tax Credit Program addresses the food security needs of communities across New Jersey by providing up to $40 million per year in tax credits to develop and sustain new supermarkets and grocery stores in food deserts, for a total of $240 million over six years. The NJEDA has identified 50 Food Desert Communities (FDCs) across the state in coordination with the Departments of Community Affairs and Agriculture. Tax credits are available to up to two eligible supermarkets or grocery stores in each FDC. The Food Desert Relief Supermarket Tax Credit Program was established by the New Jersey Economic Recovery Act (ERA) of 2020 and signed into law by Governor Phil Murphy in January 2021.

The Food Desert Relief Supermarket Tax Credit Program is comprised of two tax credits: the Financing Cap Tax Credit, applied for by a store’s developer, and the Initial Operating Costs Tax Credit, applied for by a store’s operator. For a single store to receive both credits, the applications must be reviewed and approved at the same time. Tax credits may be resold for a minimum of 85% of the transferred credit amount.
