Newfield is a borough in Gloucester County, New Jersey, United States. As of the 2010 United States Census, the borough's population was 1,553,[8][9][10] reflecting a decline of 63 (-3.9%) from the 1,616 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 24 (+1.5%) from the 1,592 counted in the 1990 Census.[19]

Newfield was formed as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 8, 1924, from portions of Franklin Township, based on the results of a referendum held on April 1, 1924.[20] In the weeks before the legislature approved the formation of the borough, a group of 240 residents traveled to Trenton by train to lobby on behalf of the creation of an independent municipality.[21] The borough's name derives from its status as a new-field development.[22]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 1.74 square miles (4.51 km2), including 1.74 square miles (4.50 km2) of land and <0.01 square miles (0.01 km2) of water (0.17%).[1][2]

The borough borders the municipalities of Franklin Township in Gloucester County and Vineland in Cumberland County.[23][24][25]

Government

Local government

Newfield is governed under the Borough form of New Jersey municipal government, which is used in 218 municipalities (of the 565) statewide, making it the most common form of government in New Jersey.[33] The governing body is comprised of a Mayor and a Borough Council, 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 is comprised 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.[6] The Borough form of government used by Newfield 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.[34][35]

As of 2020, the Mayor of Newfield Borough is Republican Donald J. Sullivan, whose term of office ends December 31, 2022.[3] Members of the Newfield Borough Council are Council President Michael Carrow (R, 2020), Thomas D. Corwonski (D, 2022), James V. Mallon (R, 2022), Scott C. Miller (D, 2021), Christina Pierce (D, 2021; elected to serve an unexpired term) and Rachel S. Zaccaria (D, 2020).[36][37][38][39][40][41]

In August 2019, Christina Pierce was appointed by the Borough Council to fill the seat expiring in December 2021 that had been held by Patricia M. Purdy.[42] In the November 2019 general election, Pierce was elected to serve the balance of the term of office.[39]

In January 2015, the Borough Council selected Stephen Boyle from a list of three candidates nominated by the Republican municipal committee to fill the vacant council seat expiring in December 2016 that had been held by Donald Sullivan until he took office as mayor.[43] In the November 2015 general election, Boyle was elected to serve the balance of the term of office.[44]

Resident committees were formed in September 2013, which announced that they would mount a petition drive to recall council members Michael Carrow and Everett Marshall III, in the wake of a conflict between the borough council and the volunteer fire department, in which the council passed an ordinance giving the borough control over the fire department and in response the fire company threatened to close in October if the ordinance wasn't overturned.[45]

Federal, state and county representation

Newfield is located in the 2nd Congressional District[46] and is part of New Jersey's 3rd state legislative district.[9][47][48] Prior to the 2011 reapportionment following the 2010 Census, Newfield had been in the 4th state legislative district.[49]

For the 118th United States Congress, New Jersey's 2nd congressional district is represented by Jeff Van Drew (R, Dennis Township).[50] New Jersey is represented in the United States Senate by Democrats Cory Booker (Newark, term ends 2027)[51] and George Helmy (Mountain Lakes, term ends 2024).[52][53]

For the 2024-2025 session, the 3rd legislative district of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the State Senate by John Burzichelli (D, Paulsboro) and in the General Assembly by David Bailey (D, Woodstown) and Heather Simmons (D, Glassboro).[54]

Gloucester County is governed by a board of county commissioners, whose seven members are elected at-large to three-year terms of office on a staggered basis in partisan elections, with either two or three seats coming up for election each year. At a reorganization meeting held each January, the Board selects a Director and a Deputy Director from among its members. As of 2024, Gloucester County's Commissioners are:

DiMarco (D, Deptford Township, 2025),[55] Matt Weng (D, Pitman, 2026),[56] Joann Gattinelli (D, Washington Township, 2026),[57] Nicholas DeSilvio (R, Franklin Township, 2024),[58] Denice DiCarlo (D, West Deptford Township, 2025)[59] Deputy Director Jim Jefferson (D, Woodbury, 2026) and [60] Christopher Konawel Jr. (R, Glassboro, 2024).[61][62]

"The Board of Education here can sever its three-decade tie with Buena Regional School District, New Jersey Commissioner of Education Lucille Davy has ruled. The move will begin in the 2010-11 school year. In a phase-in process, according to Delsea Regional School District Superintendent Frank Borelli, Delsea schools will first accept Newfield students entering grades seven and nine in September 2010. Students entering grades 10, 11 and 12 as of September 2010 would continue to be educated at Buena High School. Newfield children eligible for the sixth grade as of September 2010 would attend a school arranged for by Newfield, presumably the Franklin Township school district, and not Buena Middle School."
