Township Organizational Meeting – Marshall Bartlett Mayor
On January 13, Harding Township government had its annual organizational meeting when the mayor and deputy mayor are chosen and sworn in and the various boards, committee and commissions are staffed.
Louis Lanzerotti was sworn in as Committee person after he and Regina Egea were re-elected in November. Mrs. Egea, who didn't attend this meeting, had been sworn in earlier.
Marshal Bartlett was sworn as Mayor for a third year. In Harding's form of government, the mayor is not chosen directly in a general vote. Rather the five township committee (TC) people chose the mayor (technically the chairperson) from among themselves.
Nicolas Platt was sworn is a Deputy Mayor.
