Government
[edit]Local government
[edit]Farmingdale is governed under the borough form of New Jersey municipal government, which is used in 218 municipalities (of the 564) statewide, making it the most common form of government in New Jersey.[34] The governing body is comprised of the mayor and the 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 includes 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.[6] The borough form of government used by Farmingdale 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.[35][36]
As of 2024[update], the mayor of Farmingdale is Republican James A. Daly, whose term of office ends December 31, 2027; Daly had taken office after having been named as acting mayor following the March 2016 death of John P. "Jay" Morgan.[37] Members of the Borough Council are Council President Patricia A. Linszky (R, 2024), Erich Brandl (R, 2026), Kaaren L. Corallo (R, 2024), George J. Dyevoich (R, 2025), Colleen Sagan (R, 2025) and Don H. Steinfeld (R, 2026).[3][38][39][40][41]
In July 2020, the borough council appointed Colleen Sagan to fill the seat expiring in December 2022 that had been held by Michael J. Romano until his death two months earlier.[42] Sagan served on an interim basis until the November 2020 general election when she was chosen to serve the balance of the term of office.[43]
The 2012 elections included the election of all six council seats in the wake of the resignation of all six council members during the previous year.[44]

[edit]Farmingdale is located in the 4th Congressional District[45] and is part of New Jersey's 30th state legislative district.[46][47][48]
For the 118th United States Congress, New Jersey's 4th congressional district is represented by Chris Smith (R, Manchester Township).[49][50] New Jersey is represented in the United States Senate by Democrats Cory Booker (Newark, term ends 2027)[51] and George Helmy (Mountain Lakes, term ends 2024).[52][53]

Monmouth County is governed by a Board of County Commissioners composed of five members who are elected at-large to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either one or two seats up for election each year as part of the November general election. At an annual reorganization meeting held in the beginning of January, the board selects one of its members to serve as director and another as deputy director.[55]
