Government

Local government

The Borough of Hawthorne is governed under Mayor-Council system of municipal government under the Faulkner Act by a Mayor and a seven-member Borough Council.[4][24]

A Charter Study Commission formed in the 1980s after two major commercial businesses left the borough led to a recommendation for the adoption of a Mayor-Council form in which there are four wards to give residents a representative in each area of the community, in addition to a mayor and two at-large members of the borough council, all of whom are directly elected by residents. After residents approved the commission's recommendations, the first election under the Mayor-Council form was held in 1989.[25]

As of 2013, the Mayor of the Borough of Hawthorne is Richard S. Goldberg.[26] Members of the Hawthorne Borough Council are Council President John Bertollo (Ward 2, 2015), Council Vice President Bruce Bennett (at large, 2013), Frank E. Matthews (Ward 4, 2015), John Lane (at large, 2013), Dominic Mele (at large, 2013), Gary Sinning (Ward 3, 2015) and Joseph Wojtecki (Ward 1, 2015).[27]

On July 29, 2008, former Mayor Patrick Botbyl announced he would resign effective August 15, 2008.[28] A special election was held on November 4, 2008, in which Richard Goldberg defeated Joseph Wojtecki to become the mayor of Hawthorne for the remainder of Botbyl's term.[29]

Federal, state and county representation

Hawthorne is located in the 9th Congressional District[30] and is part of New Jersey's 38th state legislative district.[8][31][32] Prior to the 2011 reapportionment following the 2010 Census, Hawthorne had been in the 35th state legislative district.[33]

For the 118th United States Congress, New Jersey's 9th congressional district is represented by Bill Pascrell (D, Paterson).[34][35] New Jersey is represented in the United States Senate by Democrats Cory Booker (Newark, term ends 2027)[36] and Bob Menendez (Englewood Cliffs, term ends 2025).[37][38]

For the 2024-2025 session, the 38th legislative district of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the State Senate by Joseph Lagana (D, Paramus) and in the General Assembly by Lisa Swain (D, Fair Lawn) and Chris Tully (D, Bergenfield).[39] Template:NJ Governor

Education

The Hawthorne Public Schools serve public school students in kindergarten through twelfth grade. Schools in the district (with 2010-11 enrollment data from the National Center for Education Statistics[45]) are three K-5 elementary schools — Jefferson Elementary School[46] (250 students), Roosevelt Elementary School[47] (592) and Washington Elementary School[48] (292) — Lincoln Middle School[49] (594) serves students from the 6th through 8th grades and Hawthorne High School[50] (705) serves students from grades 9 through 12.[51]

In addition to public schools, the K-8 Catholic school, St. Anthony's, operates under the supervision of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Paterson.[52] Hawthorne Christian Academy is an evangelical Christian school established in 1981 by the Hawthorne Gospel Church, serving students in preschool through 12th grade.[53]

Community

Hawthorne is home to the Hawthorne Caballeros Drum and Bugle Corps, which was founded in 1946 and competes as an all-age corps in Drum Corps Associates. The Caballeros are headquartered at Hawthorne's American Legion Post 199.

Bedrin/WalMart Market controversy

A controversy has erupted since the Council voted to allow 24/7 hours of operation in order to accommodate the development of a WalMart Market at 204 Wagaraw Road.[54] Although the planning board approved a supermarket with 42,000 square feet (3,900 m2) of floor space, the identity of the occupant, WalMart Inc., and the hours of operation, 24/7, were not made clear in the public notification. Beginning in January 2012, a group of concerned citizens began asking questions of the developer, County Planning Board, Hawthorne Planning Board and the Hawthorne Borough Council.[55] Residents have raised concerns about the possibility for increased crime that a 24/7 operation could bring given a parking lot large enough for 250+ automobiles and the recent drug epidemic at the 24/7 7-Eleven in Hawthorne.[56] Other concerns include increased traffic to an already congested area, decease in public safety, decrease in property values, increased noise and air pollution, and an overall negative stigma resulting from the poor reputation of WalMart Inc. being associated with Hawthorne.

The Mayor, Richard Goldberg, confirmed that the developer was set to bring in a WalMart Market that would be open 24/7. Dozens of concerned citizens have since voiced opposition at Council meetings. Over 800 residents have signed a petition asking the Council to pass a resolution asking WalMart to pass on the chance to open their first New Jersey WalMart Market in Hawthorne. Hundreds of concerned citizens continue to communicate concerns on the Facebook page "Hawthorne Deserves Better Than WalMart", and hundreds of residents are displaying lawn signs that read "Say No to WalMart and 24/7".[57]
