Snowstorm Closes Montville Schools

• Two-hour delayed opening for Municipal offices:
  Due to the winter storm we are experiencing, Governor Christie's declaration of a State of Emergency and the need to give our DPW workers time to plow all of our streets as well as clear the snow from our facilities, all Municipal offices will have a two-hour delayed opening at 10:30am on Friday, January 3rd.
