Bergen County adopts food‑safety training requirement for American Dream retailers and updates salary ordinances
Summary
The county adopted two ordinances in second reading: a fee‑schedule amendment adding mandatory food‑safety training for American Dream Mall retail food establishments, and an ordinance updating salary ranges for county executive, commissioners, county administrator and department directors; both passed by roll call.
The Bergen County Board of County Commissioners adopted two ordinances in second reading Tuesday, one establishing a mandatory food‑safety training requirement for retail food establishments at the American Dream Mall and another updating salary schedules for county officials and department directors.
Ordinance 25‑01 amends the county fee schedule and adds a mandatory food‑safety training requirement for all retail food establishments at the American Dream Project in East Rutherford. The clerk read the ordinance by title; the public hearing produced no speakers and the ordinance was adopted on a 6‑yes roll‑call vote.
Ordinance 25‑02 amends several prior ordinances to set salary ranges for the county executive, Bergen County Board of Commissioners, county department directors and the county administrator. The ordinance also passed on second reading by the same roll call tally. The board opened and closed public hearings on each ordinance with no public comment during the scheduled hearings.
Both ordinances completed second reading and were adopted at the meeting; commissioners recorded unanimous affirmative roll‑call votes among present members. The meeting record shows the mandated public hearings and the board’s roll‑call approval for both ordinances.
