Cranbury Township

Township Committee

The New Jersey Turnpike Authority has made available the Public Hearing Report for public review.  This widening project will involve Interchange 6 to 9 and will have an impact on bordering municipalities.  You may access the report at the following address:  www.njturnpikewidening.com. 

The Township Committee is the governing body established by State law for the Township form of government. The membership of the Cranbury Township Committee was expanded from three to five in January, 1990. The terms of the members are for three years staggered so that at least one member is up for election every year. The membership annually chooses one of the members as Mayor. The Mayor presides at the meetings and votes as a member of the Committee. All formal legislative and executive powers are exercised by the Committee as a whole.

The Township Committee has allocated coordination of administrative and departmental functions among its members. Every Township board and department has at least one member of Committee as a liaison.

The Township form of government does not specify a chief administrative officer. Cranbury Township Committee established the position of Township Administrator by ordinance in 1990.

Meetings are held on the second and fourth Monday of the month, starting at 7:00 p.m. Unless noticed otherwise, meetings are held in the Town Hall, Meeting Room, located at 23-A North Main Street in Cranbury. Click here for Agendas and Minutes.
