Berkeley Mayor's Next "Office Hours" Session Coming Up Next Monday

Got something you need to get off your chest, but don't want to go to a Township Council meeting?

Then speak your piece at Berkeley Mayor Carmen F. Amato's next evening office hours from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 13 in Town Hall at 627 Pinewald-Keswick Road.

"Elected officials have an obligation to be as accessible as possible to our constituents," Amato said. "During my time in office, I have held countless “Meet the Mayor” and “Town Hall” meetings, regularly meet with constituents outside of regular business hours, and have created additional avenues for residents to contact local government."

Residents can also e-mail the mayor directly at: mayor@twp.berkeley.nj.us, or call the "Hot Line" 24 hours a day to leave suggestions, concerns or complaints at 732-244-7400, ext. 203.

"In addition to the "Hot Line" and my email, residents are encouraged to visit www.berkeleytownship.org and click next to the Mayor's message to provide suggestions or feedback online, with most residents receiving follow-up the next business day," he said.

Residents are also encouraged to sign up for the Nixle system on the township website to receive important e-mails and text messages.

"I look forward to continuing my dialog and outreach to residents in 2017," Amato said.
