The Carlstadt Republican Club
is composed of a group of ordinary citizens who banded together in the early nineties to find a way to oust a Democratic regime that had grown unresponsive to the needs of the people of Carlstadt after many decades in power. The candidates who were picked, led by Will Roseman, managed to gain a foothold on the council. The newly elected officials made such an impact so quickly that it was only a matter of time before the Republicans took over complete control of the council.
Washington Street
"I got the call yesterday about PSE&G digging up our brand new street.
We had a meeting with them yesterday afternoon and we confirmed with them that they will re-pave the entire Washington St. and re-stripe it just the way they found it. We gave them plenty of opportunity last year to make plans to replace their gas line and they said nothing. They attended meetings with us and received our plans to fix the roadway. They were even there putting new gas connections to the homes while we put the storm pipe in. Now all of a sudden, they need to replace the whole line all the way down to Hoboken Road.........Go figure.
So, please let your friends and neighbors know that it is PSE&G's fault 100% that they planned wrong, but, they will be restoring the roadway to brand new when they are done at no cost to Carlstadt." --Joe Crifasi:
Average Citizens
run the Republican Club. Come to a meeting and see what we're about. There are no dues, just a requirement to want open and honest government. We meet on the 3rd Wednesday of every month at the Il Colloseo Restaurant.
Donald Diorio Wins
Carlstadt Republican Club member Donald Diorio has won a seat on the Carlstadt BOE. We hope that the election of Diorio and the return of Bruce Young to the board will set Carlstadt's Board of Ed. on the road to fiscal responsibility.

Carlstadt 911 Memorial Window
Carlstadt, NJ has the sad distinction of being the only town to have lost an individual at each of the September 11th terror sites. This monumental window was two years in the making, is completely hand made and dedicated to those we lost on that fateful day.
The window is dedicated to Father Mychal Judge who died at the World Trade Center; Joseph Pycior, who perished in the Pentagon and to Lauren Catuzzi Grandcolas who was lost on United Flight 93. It is also dedicated to those our borough lost in Iraq, Frank Carvill and Michael Schwarz. --Will Roseman

How We Got Here
A Message from Mayor Will Roseman, Dave Stoltz, and Rich Bartlett
Now that the election is over, the team looks forward to a year of renewed service and public duty.
Taxes:
Your Republican Team has held the line on taxes. For the past five years, your municipal tax rate (the only portion that the governing body controls) has gone up less than inflation! In fact, Carlstadt has the third lowest taxes in Bergen County.
Recreation:
We have the finest fields and the finest recreation for our children. And unlike other Bergen County towns, it’s all free! Keeping Carlstadt as a “family oriented” community has always been our primary objective and children are always first in our mind.
Seniors:
The Republican’s introduced the Senior Bus in Carlstadt and now offer seniors “transportation service” for doctor visits. Construction begins on our “Carlstadt only” senior housing project this spring and we are expecting occupancy this fall.
Meadowlands Housing:
Your Republican Team has successfully fought “meadowlands housing” for the past twelve years. The Democrats favor placing 5,500 housing units in our meadowlands which would destroy our taxes as well as the great quality of life we enjoy here in Carlstadt.Efficiency:
From the restructuring of our Police Department to shared gas services with neighboring towns, Carlstadt continues to save money. We spend less on our Police Department today than we did three years ago and we received well over a million dollars in grants this year alone.Safe and Clean Streets:
Our streets are safe any time of the day or night and there is no question that Carlstadt has the cleanest streets. No other town in Bergen County offers garbage pick-up, recycling pick-up and snow plowing like Carlstadt does and every year at least two streets are resurfaced.Where do I vote?
