Government



Local government


Old Tappan 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.[5] The Borough form of government used by Old Tappan, 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.[39][40] This seven-member governing body enacts local ordinances, levies municipal taxes, conducts the affairs of the borough and in almost all cases, can review and approve the actions of other borough boards, committees and agencies. The Mayor and Borough Council conducts all of it business during monthly meetings open to the public. All legislative powers of the Borough are exercised by the Mayor and Council in the form of a resolution, ordinance or proclamation.[41]


As of 2016[update], the Mayor of Old Tappan is Republican John M. Kramer, whose term of office ends December 31, 2019. Members of the Old Tappan Borough Council are Ron E. Binaghi Jr. (R, 2017), Guy Carnazza (R, 2018), Victor Cioce (R, 2016), Thomas Gallagher (R, 2017; appointed to serve an unexpired term), Anna Haverilla (R, 2018) and Matt Nalbandian (R, 2016).[41][42][43][44][45][46]


In February 2016, the Borough Council selected Thomas Gallagher from three candidates nominated by the Republican municipal committee to fill the council seat expiring in December 2017 that was vacated by John Kramer when he took office as mayor.
