Ordinances
are the means by which municipal governing bodies in the State
of New Jersey create laws and certain financial obligations.
In order for an ordinance to become law it must be introduced,
on first reading, by the Township Council and approved by a
simple majority vote of the Council. A hearing date is scheduled
and the text of the ordinance (or asummary) and notice of hearing
date is published in the Township’s legal newspaper - the New
Jersey Herald. An ordinance hearing is conducted by the Township
Council on the date specified at which time members of the public
can voice opinions. After public comment, the Township Council
votes on the proposed ordinance, either adopting the ordinance
by a simple majority (or a two-thirds majority in cases where
debt is authorized) or defeating it.
Notice of the Township Council’s action is published in the
New Jersey Herald, after which the approved ordinance goes into
effect.The following ordinances have been adopted by the Township
Council since January 1, 2000.
The full text of each ordinance can be found in the Township
Council meeting minutes. If you have questions or would like
additional information about any of the ordinances described
