PARSIPPANY — During its meeting on Monday, January 27, 2026, the Parsippany-Troy Hills Township Council adopted Resolution R2026-036, formally opposing the establishment of any U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) processing or detention facility within the township.
The resolution came in response to a Washington Post article published on December 24, 2025, which revealed federal plans to potentially repurpose industrial warehouses into detention facilities for immigration enforcement.
It also states that industrial warehouses in Parsippany were never intended or approved for human occupancy.
On January 14, Representatives with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement apparently scouting a Route 46 warehouse as a possible migrant deportation facility.
