February 12, 2008 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.
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 4, 2008; notice was posted on the bulletin board in the main hallway of the Municipal Building on January 4, 2008; and notice was filed with the Township Clerk on January 4, 2008.
