Rocky Hill is a borough in Somerset County, New Jersey, United States, named for the Rocky Hill Ridge. Before roads were improved and people traveled by automobiles, it was known as the Devil's Featherbed because it was difficult to travel the rocky terrain by horse and wagon.[19]

As of the 2010 United States Census, the rural borough's population was 682,[8][9][10] reflecting an increase of 20 (+3.0%) from the 662 counted in the 2000 Census. This was a decline of 31 persons (-4.5%) from the 693 counted in the 1990 Census.[20]

Rocky Hill was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on December 18, 1889, from portions of Montgomery Township, based on the results of a referendum held four days earlier.[21]

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 0.622 square miles (1.612 km2), including 0.619 square miles (1.604 km2) of land and 0.003 square miles (0.008 km2) of water (0.52%).[1][2]

The borough borders the Somerset County municipalities of Franklin Township and Montgomery Township.[22][23][24]

Government

Local government

Rocky Hill is governed under the Borough form of New Jersey municipal government, which is used in 218 of 565 municipalities 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 Rocky Hill is a "weak mayor / strong council" government, in which council members act as the legislative body. The mayor presides at meetings and votes 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 Rocky Hill is Democrat Robert Uhrik, whose term of office ends December 31, 2022. Members of the Borough Council are Council President Irene Battaglia (I, 2021), Billy Dawson (D, 2020), Connie Hallman (I, 2021), Amy Kirtland (I, 2020; elected to serve an unexpired term), Rasheeda Pretto (D, 2022) and Jennifer Walsh (D, 2022).[3][36][37][38][39][40]

Rasheeda Pretto was appointed to fill the Borough Council seat expiring in December 2020 that had been held by Robert Uhrik until he stepped down to take office as mayor, though she chose to run for a full three-year term rather than to run for the remainder of the term. In November 2019, Amy Kirtland won a write-in campaign to fill the balance of Uhrik's council term.[41]

At the January 2015 Reorganization Meeting, the Borough Council selected Robert Ashbaugh to fill the vacant seat expiring in December 2015 of Jeffrey Donohue, who vacated the seat when he took office as mayor.[42]

Federal, state and county representation

Rocky Hill is located in the 7th Congressional District[43] and is part of New Jersey's 16th state legislative district[9][44][45]

For the 118th United States Congress, New Jersey's 7th congressional district is represented by Thomas Kean Jr. (R, Westfield).[46] New Jersey is represented in the United States Senate by Democrats Cory Booker (Newark, term ends 2027)[47] and George Helmy (Mountain Lakes, term ends 2024).[48][49]

For the 2024-2025 session, the 16th legislative district of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the New Jersey Senate by Andrew Zwicker (D, South Brunswick) and in the General Assembly by Mitchelle Drulis (D, East Amwell Township) and Roy Freiman (D, Hillsborough Township).[50]
