Founding Board

Downtown Morris Plains was established in 2023, following the 2020 formation of the Borough's Business Development Committee and in anticipation of Morris Plains’ Centennial Celebration in 2026.

In gratitude, we recognize the members of the founding board for bringing our vision to life. Pictured from left to right: Portia Levasseur, Marianne Steckert, Amanda Cocheo, and Allison White.
