Morris County Freeholders and Sheriff Reach Agreement on County Jail Operation

Sheriff Edward Rochford

The Morris County Freeholders have reached an agreement with Morris County Sheriff Edward V. Rochford that would allow him to have a key supervisory role in management of the county jail after the county administration assumes control of the county corrections facility on Sept. 1.

Under terms of the discussions, the sheriff and freeholders would work together on a smooth transition of jail oversight to the freeholders.
A Memorandum of Understanding between the sheriff and freeholders was formally approved unanimously by the freeholders last night after a meeting with Sheriff Edward Rochford and some of his top staff.

To view the Memorandum, visit: http://morriscountynj.gov/pdfs/150722res-final.pdf

The Memorandum of Understanding will guide the two parties until a formal contract is signed next week.

The freeholders on Wednesday night also agreed to Sheriff Richford’s request to consider potential measures that could be employed to help retain newly hired corrections officers, to help reduce staff turnover that he says makes it difficult to efficiently operate the jail.

Under terms of the Memorandum of Understanding, the sheriff will supervise and guide the warden, advising him on policy, procedure and personnel matters in the day-to-day operations at the county jail. The freeholders will control finance, labor negotiations and personnel matters.

The freeholder board announced the agreement at their meeting on Wednesday night in Netcong, where they met with Sheriff Rochford. A statement read by Freeholder Director Kathy DeFillippo and Freeholder Doug Cabana, can be viewed athttp://morriscountynj.gov/pdfs/FreeholdersAnnounceAgreement–7-23-15.pdf

“We are pleased that Sheriff Rochford has agreed to work with the freeholders and will continue to be involved in running the jail, which has long had a positive record of accomplishment and professionalism,’’ said DeFillippo.

“It’s in the best interest of county residents that we have been able to work out an agreement with Sheriff Rochford and to have a smooth management transition at the jail,’’ said Freeholder Cabana

“While the Freeholders and I have had differences on this matter, and I still have reservations about the agreement I will work collaboratively with the Freeholders not only for the benefit of the dedicated correction officers and staff, but also for the benefit of the residents of Morris County,” said Sheriff Rochford.

The freeholders voted on June 24 to take control of the jail – Freeholder John Cesaro abstained, suggesting a need for more review on the issue.

Ron Ceglia and Rich Gannon on the greens

PARSIPPANY — The Woman’s Club of Parsippany Troy Hills (WCPTH) held its 34th Annual Tee off for Education Golf Classic at the Knoll West Country Club on July 14.

The Golf Classic is the primary fundraiser for the club’s educational programs and scholarships. Last year the club awarded nine scholarships to graduating Parsippany area High School seniors and awarded a scholarship in the continuing education program for a woman from the Jersey Battered Women’s Services. The club also participated in several elementary and middle school educational programs.

Seventy-eight golfers, including Parsippany Councilman Michael dePierro enjoyed the day. Two golfers, Dean Gannett and Rich Gannon, won the putting green contest, each having a hole in one in the contest. Club President, Marilyn Marion thought this was a first for the Golf Classic. There were also 40 non-golfers, many from St. Ann’s Church and area Women’s Clubs, who supported the fundraiser.

While the golfers were out on the course, there were several bridge, dominos and pokingo games being played. After the golf and games were finished, everyone was able to consider bidding on the vast Tricky Tray selection which included Yankee tickets, baskets of cheer, theater tickets, Vera Bradley hand bags, signed Jets football, gift cards to local restaurants and much more.

Parsippany-Troy Hills Mayor James Barberio was able to join everyone for the buffet lunch.

The Woman’s Club of Parsippany Troy Hills wishes to thank all of the area businesses who donated money, prizes and more. Their continued support of this annual event helps to make it a success. Next year the 35th Annual Tee Off for Education Golf Classic will be held on Tuesday, July 12.

Filing deadline for Board of Education Candidates is July 27

0

PARSIPPANY — The president of the New Jersey School Boards Association is urging citizens with a sincere interest in the education of Parsippany’s children to consider serving on the school board. The filing deadline for candidacy is 4 p.m., Monday, July 27.

Interested citizens can find information about the responsibilities of school board membership, qualifications for office, nominating petitions, and candidacy timelines on the NJSBA website at www.njsba.org/candidacy.

“Local school boards have a direct impact on the education received by New Jersey’s schoolchildren,” said Donald Webster, Jr., NJSBA president. “The board of education sets the goals and policies that represent the community’s aspirations for its public schools. The board selects the district’s superintendent and acts on his or her personnel recommendations. It negotiates collective bargaining agreements with teachers and other employees. And it makes critical decisions affecting curriculum, budgeting and facilities.

“Local school board membership is an unpaid and challenging public service, but it is also a rewarding public service that has a direct impact on the lives of our children and the quality of life in our communities,” he continued.

For their names to be placed on the November 3, 2015 election ballot, citizens seeking school board office must file a nominating petition at the Office of the County Clerk by the 4 p.m., July 27 deadline. A nominating petition must be signed by at least 10 registered voters within the school district.

Three seats are up for grabs this year. Fran Orthwein, Judy Mayer, and Michael Pietrowicz’ terms expire at the end of the year.
