Government

Local government

Allendale is governed under the Borough form of New Jersey municipal government. The governing body consists of a Mayor and a Borough Council comprising six council members, with all positions elected at-large on a partisan basis as part of the November general election. A Mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. The Borough Council consists of six members elected to serve three-year terms on a staggered basis, with two seats coming up for election each year in a three-year cycle.[3] The Borough form of government used by Allendale, the most common system used in the state, is a "weak mayor / strong council" government in which council members act as the legislative body with the mayor presiding at meetings and voting only in the event of a tie. The mayor can veto ordinances subject to an override by a two-thirds majority vote of the council. The mayor makes committee and liaison assignments for council members, and most appointments are made by the mayor with the advice and consent of the council.[41][42] The Mayor and Borough Council conduct all of their business during monthly meetings open to the public. All Legislative powers of the Borough are exercised by the Mayor and Council. These powers can take the form of a resolution, ordinance or proclamation. The Mayor presides at all meetings of the Council. At Workshop meetings, the governing body discusses and debates proposed resolutions, ordinances and other policy matters. These meetings are open to the public, and members of the public may participate at an appropriate time at the meeting.[43]

As of 2016, the Mayor of Allendale is Republican Elizabeth M. "Liz" White, whose term of office ends December 31, 2018. Members of the Borough Council (with party affiliation, term-end year and committee assignments listed in parentheses) are Ari Bernstein (R, 2016; Administration, Finance and Human Resources), Liz Homan (R, 2018; Public Safety), Jackie McSwiggan (R, 2017; Water, Sewer and Public Utilities), Steve Sasso (R, 2016; Land Use and Construction Code), Jim Strauch (R, 2018; Public Works) and Amy Wilczynski (R, 2017; Facilities, Parks and Recreation).[4][44][45][46][47][48]
