History
The Black Horse Tavern & Pub

Mendham Borough was incorporated by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on May 15, 1906, from portions of Mendham Township, because residents of what became the Borough wanted sidewalks and street lights constructed while those that lived in what remained the Township (including the communities of Brookside and Ralston) felt it was cost prohibitive in their more rural areas.[28][29][30]

The township may be named for Mendham, Suffolk, England,[31][32] or the name may derive from the Native American word mendom (meaning "raspberry") or for an Earl of Mendham.[33][34]

Located on the borough's southern slope of Bernardsville Mountain in the Somerset Hills lies the former estate of investment banker Walter Bliss, called Wendover. One of the largest mansions in the Mendhams, it is now home to the Roxiticus Golf Club.[35][36]

Government

Local government

Mendham Borough is governed under the Borough form of New Jersey municipal government, one of 218 municipalities (of the 565) statewide that use this form, the most commonly used form of government in the state.[55] The governing body is comprised of a Mayor and a Borough Council, with all positions elected at-large on a partisan basis as part of the November general election. A Mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. The Borough Council is comprised of six members elected to serve three-year terms on a staggered basis, with two seats coming up for election each year in a three-year cycle.[3] The Borough form of government used by Mendham Borough is a "weak mayor / strong council" government in which council members act as the legislative body with the mayor presiding at meetings and voting only in the event of a tie. The mayor can veto ordinances subject to an override by a two-thirds majority vote of the council. The mayor makes committee and liaison assignments for council members, and most appointments are made by the mayor with the advice and consent of the council.[56][57]

The mayor is considered the head of the municipal government and as chief executive is responsible to see that all state laws and borough ordinances are faithfully executed. The mayor, presides over the borough council meetings and only votes in order to break a tie. The mayor can veto ordinances and appoint subordinate officials, ad hoc committees and certain other officials to boards, committees and commissions.

As of 2020, the mayor is Republican Christine Serrano Glassner, whose term ends of office ends December 31, 2022.[4] The Borough Council is composed of Council President Brad Badal (R, 2020), John Andrews (R, 2020), Steve Andrew (R, 2021), Brennan Reilly (R, 2021), Mary Sue Martin (R, 2022), and James R. Kelly (R, 2022).[58][59][60]<[61][62][63][64][65]

In January 2019, the Borough Council appointed James Kelly to fill the term expiring in December 2019 that became vacant when Christine Glassner took office as Mayor.[66]

Morris County is governed by a seven-member Board of County Commissioners, who are elected at-large in partisan elections, to three-year terms on a staggered basis, with either one or three seats up for election each year as part of the November general election. The Commissioner Board sets policies for the operation of six super-departments, more than 30 divisions plus authorities, commissions, boards and study committees.[77] Actual day-to-day operation of departments is supervised by County Administrator, John Bonanni.[78] As of 2021, Morris County's Commissioners are Commissioner Director Stephen H.

Tayfun Selen was elected by a county Republican convention to the vacant seat of Heather Darling, who was elected Morris County Surrogate in 2019.[87] He served the remainder of her term which ended in 2020 and was elected to a full three-year term in the November general election that year.[88]

Pursuant to Article VII Section II of the New Jersey State Constitution, each county in New Jersey is required to have three elected administrative officials known as "constitutional officers."
