Deer have been seen regularly in the West End of Plainfield since at least 1996.<br /> <br />There have been deer on Parkside Road in the West End of Plainfield since 1996 when one was spotted by my daughter Kendra Marie Hill and her friend Latoya Jones on the lawn of LaToya's house at 417 Parkside Road.<br /><br />Several years ago, while I was teaching a class at Cedarbrook School on Central Ave.,my students and I spotted a deer on the side- walk running northward on the eastern side of Central Avenue.<br /><br />Over the past 5 years it has been routine to see deer on Pemberton Avenue in Cedarbrook Park between Park Avenue and Lakeview Terrace.<br /><br />There are often families of 5 or more deer running back and forth across the road in the Park.<br /><br />About 2 months ago, I called Union County to request that a sign be posted at the entrances to the Park from Park Avenue and Lakeview<br />Terrace so that drivers are alerted to the dangers. <br /><br />At the annual barbecue given by Adrian and Amelia Mapp, I spoke with Freeholder Linda Carter about the signs as well. As of yesterday, there are no signs posted indicating BEWARE OF DEER.<br /><br />The deer are seen regularly in the yards from Park Avenue to Clinton Avenue on the southernly side of the West End of Plainfield.<br /> <br />I have also seen deer on Clinton Avenue running from South Plainfield into Plainfield.<br /><br /><br />Lastly, yesterday, Saturday, September 17th, I spotted a pile of<br />strange looking poop in my front yard. Based on your photo, I recognize it to be the same type which is posted on Clips.<br /><br />Thank you for helping me to solve the poop mystery.<br /><br />Ora Bailey HillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-70231365665633129262011-09-18T21:54:16.470-04:002011-09-18T21:54:16.470-04:00We have spotted deer grazing at the Hubbard School...We have spotted deer grazing at the Hubbard School (W.

Some deer could be coming down from there too. And I saw a fawn cross in front of my car on Kenyon near Pemberton about 10am one morning last week. I don't know where it's parents were...
