Government

Local government

The Borough of Hawthorne is governed under the Faulkner Act, formally known as the Optional Municipal Charter Law, within the Mayor-Council system of municipal government.[3] The township is one of 71 municipalities (of the 565) statewide that use this form of government.[37] The governing body is comprised of the Mayor and the seven-member Borough Council. 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, with all members of the governing body serving four-year terms of office. After residents approved the commission's recommendations, the first election under the Mayor-Council form was held in 1989. The four ward seats are up for vote together and the three at-large seats and the mayoral position up for vote together two years later. All elections are held on a partisan basis as part of the November general election.[38][39]

As of 2020, the Mayor of the Borough of Hawthorne is Republican Richard S. Goldberg, whose term of office ends December 31, 2021.[4] Members of the Hawthorne Borough Council are Bruce A. Bennett (R, at large, 2021), Rayna Laiosa (R, Ward 2, 2023), John V. Lane (R, at large, 2021), Frank E. Matthews (R, Ward 4, 2023), Dominic Mele (R, at large, 2021), Michael Sciarra (R, Ward 3, 2023; appointed to serve an unexpired term) and Joseph R. Wojtecki (D, Ward 1, 2023).[40][41][42][43][44]

In January 2020, the Borough Council appointed Michael Sciarra to fill the Ward 3 expiring in December 2023 that had been won by Garret G. Sinning, who died two weeks after winning re-election; Sciarra will serve on an interim basis until the November 2020 general election, when voters will select a candidate to serve the balance of the term of office.[45][46]

On July 29, 2008, former Mayor Patrick Botbyl announced he would resign effective August 15, 2008.[47] 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.[48]

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.[106] 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. 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 increased drug use at the 24/7 7-Eleven in Hawthorne. Other concerns include increased traffic to an already congested area, decrease in public safety, decrease in property values, increased noise and air pollution, and an overall negative association of WalMart being associated with Hawthorne.[107]

In May 2014, the Borough Council passed an ordinance that would prohibit big box retailers from opening in the borough's main retail districts; Wal-Mart had announced in March 2013 that it would abandon its efforts to open in Hawthorne.[108][109]
