Three people serve on the Township government for a three year term. A single position is open each year for someone from the public to run for office. The Commercial Township Committee oversees the local government and approves a municipal budget for local government operations. The Mayor is appointed by the three Township committee people and is not elected directly by the public. In the absence of the Mayor, a Township Committee person is designated as Deputy Mayor to make final decisions within the government. The Township Committee works together to make the proper decisions for our government. Each Committee person is responsible for various departments as a point of contact and to assist in decision making.
