EAST HANOVER — The Morris County Board of Freeholders will hold the second of eight 2017 county government ”road meetings’’ at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, May 24, at the East Hanover municipal building as part of a continuing effort to bring county government closer to their constituents.
Residents from East Hanover and all towns in Morris County are invited to the freeholder meeting and to raise issues and ask questions about county and regional issues.
The East Hanover Municipal Building is located at 411 Ridgedale Avenue.
The agenda for the Freeholder meeting will be available by clicking here.
Morris County is governed by a seven-member Board of Chosen Freeholders. The members are elected at large to serve three-year terms. It is not unusual for a Freeholder to spend between 30 and 40 hours a week on activities related to the part-time position. The Freeholder Board sets policies for the operation of six super-departments, more than thirty divisions plus authorities, commissions, boards and study committees. Actual day-to-day operation of departments is supervised by the county administrator. The Board of Chosen Freeholders has been granted broad powers by the state legislature to regulate county property, finances and affairs.
