Editor's Note: The Borough of Spotswood adopted the Mayor-Council
Plan B form of government under N.J.S.A. 40:69A-49 et seq. The Laws
of 1981, c. 465, repealed this plan but allowed in N.J.S.A. 40:69A-208.1
for the continuation of Mayor-Council form of government until such
time as it shall be abandoned or altered according to statute. See
now N.J.S.A. 40:69A-31 et seq.
The Council shall be the legislative body of the Borough and
shall exercise all legislative powers not inconsistent with the general
laws of the State of New Jersey.
The Council, in addition to such other powers conferred upon
it by the general laws of the State of New Jersey, may:
A.
Require
any Borough officer, in its discretion, to prepare and submit sworn
statements regarding the performance of his official duties, and otherwise
to investigate the conduct of any department, office or agency of
the Borough government.
B.
Remove
any Borough officer, other than the Mayor or a member of Council,
for cause, upon notice and an opportunity to be heard.
