There are three sections of the government:
-
Mayor and Administration - responsible for the day to day operations of the
Borough.
-
Council - responsible for creating resolutions and ordinances.
-
Board of Education - responsible for the administration of education.
Your tax bill is actually split into four sections: 1) Local Board of Education,
2) Regional Board of Education, 3) Essex County and 4) Borough Administration.
None of the above sections has any control over the other and the funds are
not shared or co-mingled or transferred back and forth in any way. |
