  • Linden TV is Back!

    May 19, 2026 in Linden TV

    Linden TV’s major system upgrades are now fully live, making Linden TV more accessible than ever before.

    Both Linden TV channels, Verizon 42 and Comcast 36, are fully operational with updated programming and enhanced viewing capabilities.

    Residents no longer require a traditional cable subscription to stay connected with City programming and community information. Instead, residents may now access Linden TV programming in multiple ways!

    Residents can watch in real time from their phones, tablets, or computers.

    These upgrades represent a major step forward in expanding public accessibility, transparency, and community engagement through modern digital platforms. Further expansion plans are already underway, including future availability of Linden TV on platforms such as Roku and Amazon, which will further increase the reach and convenience of City programming.

  • 2026 National Public Works Week

    May 13, 2026 in Public Works

    This year’s theme acknowledges that the roots of service run deep in public works. It has propelled public works innovations that have helped our communities evolve, where people can lead lives of purpose and possibility.

    Some work, such as building roads and bridges, is highly visible. Other public works contributions, including the operations and maintenance of storm & sanitary sewer systems, public buildings & properties, traffic signals & parking meters, trees, parks, vehicles, landscaping, and capital improvements are sometimes hidden from view.

    Together, these efforts form the foundation of thriving communities, reminding us that every project, seen or unseen, powers the connection between service and the people it supports.
