Government
Local government
Starting from its inception in 1871, Mount Olive was governed under the Township form of municipal government, by a three-person Township Committee. In 1968, the Township Committee was expanded to five members. Effective January 1, 1972, the voters in the Township approved a change to a Mayor-Council form of government, which would be governed by a directly elected mayor and a seven-member Township Council elected on an at-large basis. The mayor would operate the government with the assistance of a Township Administrator, with the Council performing a legislative role.[22]
Mount Olive Township is governed under the Optional Municipal Charter Law's (Faulkner Act) Mayor-Council form of government (Plan E), enacted based on the recommendations of a Charter Study Commission.[39] This provides a "Strong Mayor" form of government, with a separately elected mayor and council, who each serve for four-year terms of office.[5] The mayor, who is elected directly by the people, is the Chief Executive Officer of the Township. The Mayor is responsible for carrying out all Council decisions and for the day-to-day operation of all functions of the municipality. The Township Council consists of seven members elected on an at-large basis with staggered terms in elections held every two years with either three seats or four seats coming up for vote. The Township Council is the legislative branch of the government charged with approving the municipal budget and enacting the ordinances (laws) of the municipality. The council elects a Council President from among its membersat an annual reorganization meeting. The Council President presides at all council meetings.
As of 2016[update], the Mayor of Mount Olive Township is Republican Robert Greenbaum, whose term of office ends December 31, 2019.[1] Members of the Township Council are Council President Joe Nicastro (R, term on concil ends 2019; term as president ends 2017), Council Vice President Alex Roman (R, term on council ends 2019; term as vice president ends 2017), Daniel Amianda (R, 2017), John Ferrante (R, 2017), Colleen Labow (R, 2019), John Mania (R, 2017) and Gregory Stewart (R, 2017; elected to serve an unexpired term).[40][41][42][43][44][45]
In July 2015, the Township Council selected Gregory Stewart from three candidates nominated by the Republican municipal committee to fill the seat expiring in December 2017 that had been held by Ray Perkins until his resignation from office to move out of the township, after having served 13 years in office; Stewart will serve on an interim basis until the November 2016 general election, when voters will choose a candidate to serve the one year remaining on the term of office.[46]
Serving a term ending December 2013, Patrick Walsh resigned from office in February 2013, citing internal conflicts in the township's Republican Party government.[47]
