MAYOR

What a mayor can actually do in New Jersey depends on the form of government the municipality adopted. Under a strong-mayor Faulkner Act charter the office is a full executive with appointment and veto powers; in a commission or small municipality form it may be a council member who chairs meetings.

Elected in every case, so there is no examination, no eligible list and no job specification.

Where this title is used

Mayor is a local service title. It is filled by the counties, municipalities, authorities and other employers that have adopted civil service under Title 11A, not by State departments. Those employers set pay by ordinance or contract rather than from a State salary schedule, which is why most local titles carry no salary range here.
