MAPLEWOOD, NJ — Applications for rental space in the Rahner Greenhouse will be received in the Maplewood Municipal Building, 574 Valley St., on Thursday, Sept. 9, starting at 6 p.m. and expected to conclude at 7 p.m. Spaces are allotted on a first-come, first-served basis. A sign-in sheet will be brought to the meeting room at 4 p.m., at which time interested residents may enter their names on the sheet. There is no need to remain in the hall until 6 p.m., when the allocation of spaces will be distributed in the order in which applicants have signed in. 

Residents unable to sign in early may come anytime between 6 and 7 p.m. and still sign in and get a bench. The application forms must be signed by the applicant and accompanied by the seasonal rental fee. Either a check made out to “Township of Maplewood” or cash will be accepted. Be prepared to complete the application and submit the fee during the sign-up hour. 

For those who cannot make it to the town hall sign-up night, a space can be rented from the Department of Public Works, 359 Boyden Ave., beginning at noon on Monday, Sept. 13.
