[edit] Elmo

Somehow I doubt Elmo from Seasame Street is a Summit native... unless anyone has anything to back it up? Liamdaly620 21:51, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Meryl Streep

I don't think she really belongs here. Her main connection to Summit is that she was born in Overlook Hospital ... because it was at the time the closest to where her family lived, and where she really grew up: Bernardsville. AFAIK she never lived in Summit. Daniel Case 18:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Summit form of government

Someone keeps insisting that Summit operates under the NJ Faulkner Act, which is incorrect. Each time I change the text, someone changes it back.

The Faulkner Act establishes the strong mayor-council form and the council-manager form. Summit has neither. It actually operates under the traditional city form, which dates back to the state statutes of 1899, with modern amendments.

The sites's description of the powers of the mayor and the council are substantially correct, however.--68.239.214.111 20:30, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
