Spring Valley officials met last week with the Spring Valley Police Department to arrange final plans for the annual Erev Pesach chometz burning at Memorial Park.

The entrance to the site will be only through Lawler Boulevard between 6:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m., with all other access points closed. Exiting will be through Dr. Berg Lane and East Church Street.

Additional parking will be available along Memorial Park Drive near the pool, and people can use the pedestrian bridge to reach the burning area.

During the meeting, they also discussed security across the village for Pesach, with increased patrols expected in neighborhoods and around local shuls, with officers expected to make periodic stops at shuls throughout Yom Tov.

Residents are reminded to follow all safety guidelines at the site and avoid bringing unsafe or hazardous materials to the fire.
