As you wander through our web pages, come and journey with us through the Borough of Netcong. Nestled in the mountains of Morris County, the Borough of Netcong is small in size but lacks for nothing. Still maintaining our small town appearance, we have a bustling Main Street enhanced by Lake Musconetcong on its perimeter. With The Growing Stage Theater, Netcong is in the forefront of children's theater. Our education system contains both parochial and public schools. Our 10 student per teacher ratio allows the children better access to their teachers, emphasing the learning process.
High School students attend Lenape Valley Regional High School, which is shared by Netcong, Stanhope and Byram residents. Lenape Valley also has its own Planetarium for the students which is opened from time to time for the general public and is well worth a visit.
Our down town area offers a variety of eating establishments ranging from Tex Mex to Italian. Our yearly Feasts are exciting and end with an amazing firework display. Netcong Day which we hold in September, attracts vendors and visitors from far and wide and is a wonderful day for strolling through our town.
Netcong is the hub of up-to-date transportation. New Jersey Transit provides train service to many other towns and links to NYC Path Trains. Access from Route 80 and Rt. 46 brings many diverse travelers to our Borough. NJ Transit NEW Customer number is: 973-275-5555.

DOG REQUIREMENTS AND ORDINANCES As you know, many of us here in town live very close to our neighbors. It is for this reason that we must be considerate of our neighbors when it comes to the handling of our pets.
Leashing - Municipal Ordinance 105-20 and 21 requires that all dogs on any public street, sidewalk, park or any other public place must not be allowed to run at large, and must be kept on a leash. The leash may not be more than 6 feet in length.
Barking - Ordinance 105-19 dictates that if your dog is housed outside, habitual barking or other noise that can be offensive to your neighbors is not allowed between the hours of 9 pm and 7 am.
Licensing - Ordinance 105-1 requires that all dogs within the Borough obtain a license from Borough Hall. The fee for neutered dogs is $13.20, non-neutered $16.20. All dogs in the Borough must be licensed yearly by January 31. Dogs licensed after January 31 will incur a late fee of $5.00 for the month of February and $1.00 for each month thereafter. You may call Borough Hall for more information at (973) 347-0252. A license application is located here: Dog License Application.
NO DOGS IN BOROUGH PARKS
Signs have been erected in the Borough Parks to remind residents and visitors that dogs are not allowed in these public facilities. Keeping our parks clean and safe will make them more enjoyable. We ask everyone for their cooperation in this matter.
