Environment

Located 25 miles west of NYC, the city of Summit sits atop the second of the Watchung Mountains, and has a population of over 21,000 residents.

The City of Summit provides an ongoing investment in preserving and improving its natural resources and community health.

With the input and active participation of all segments of the community, Summit has undertaken a concerted process to reduce our impact on the environment, manage development, and ensure our quality of life for this generation and those to come.

Residents of all ages participate on committees, working to create a “greener” and healthier Summit for us all.
