Thank You!

On behalf of the City of Plainfield, I greet you with the passion and enthusiasm that hopefully you share for our Queen City, Plainfield, New Jersey.

Plainfield has a very diverse, rich history, and our future is excitingly boundless. Please visit our downloads page which will provide you with some vital information about our city. The events page will provide you with activities that are happening in our city.

This is a difficult time for everyone in our country. Hard financial times and rising costs are forcing everyone, including the City of Plainfield, to re-examine their priorities. My main goal is to ensure a balanced and stable budget, with minimal or no impact on City services and ensuring that the City will be in a greater financial position as our economy returns to normal.

Please understand that through all the turmoil and the public reports, I remain steadfast in my desire to bring the best to the City of Plainfield. I will continue to make the best possible decisions for the welfare of our residents, and to protect our citizens in any way possible.

The City of Plainfield employees and I continue to wish all of our residents well during this holiday season. May you find peace, grace and joy as we each celebrate in our own special way. Please be assured that if there is anything that I can do to help you, please contact my office and I will do my best to see that your request is addressed.
