Mannington adopts ordinance updating acting salaries for township officers
Summary
Mannington Township Committee on Aug. 5 adopted Ordinance No. 24-05 amending the town salary ordinance to set annual pay for several acting positions, including Acting Clerk/Administrator at $40,000; the measure took effect Aug. 1, 2024.
The Mannington Township Committee adopted Ordinance No. 24-05 on second and final reading on Aug. 5, amending the township salary ordinance and setting pay levels for several acting positions.
The ordinance, which the committee adopted following a brief public hearing with no comments, prescribes annual salaries of $40,000 for the Acting Clerk/Administrator, $12,000 for the Acting Registrar of Vital Statistics and $2,060 for the Acting Board of Health secretary. The ordinance states it becomes effective Aug. 1, 2024, upon final passage and required publication.
Committeeman Rick Eber moved to adopt the ordinance and Committeewoman Dunham seconded. The roll-call recorded Asay – yes, Dunham – yes, Eber – yes. The record shows no public opposition during the hearing.
Why it matters: the ordinance updates a long-standing salary ordinance originally adopted in 1968 and clarifies compensation and pay dates for appointive and elective officers and employees. The change standardizes compensation for acting roles and places the amended language in the township code until further amendment or repeal.
What’s next: the ordinance is effective as stated in the text; the committee did not discuss further amendments at the meeting.
