TOWNSHIP OF CHATHAM

WORKSHOP AGENDA

FEBRUARY 12, 2009

February 11, 2009 draft

 

Workshop public meetings are held primarily for the Mayor and Committee to discuss issues informally.  These issues will in most cases be resolved at a subsequent regular public meeting by a formal vote either to pass a resolution or adopt an ordinance.  Regular public meetings are normally held the second Thursday of each month.  The Township Committee may, however, pass a resolution, introduce an ordinance, and, if advertised, adopt an ordinance at a workshop meeting if warranted.

 

Meeting Called to Order

Adequate Notice of this meeting of the Township Committee was given as required by the Open Public Meetings Act as follows: Notice was given to both The Chatham Courier and the Morris County Daily Record on January 8, 2009; notice was posted on the bulletin board in the main hallway of the Municipal Building on January 8, 2009; and notice was filed with the Township Clerk on January 8, 2009.
