Summary

Administrator McCafferty and Solicitor Wright presented a draft social media policy; councilors discussed naming a Borough designee as Administrator, committee representatives as Moderators, and asked liaisons to inventory current committee platforms.

At the June 9 work session, Administrator McCafferty and Solicitor Wright presented a draft Social Media Policy that aims to clarify authority and permissions for borough accounts and committee pages.

Council discussion centered on whether the borough should name a single Borough designee as the Administrator while committee representatives would be labeled as Moderators. Council liaisons were asked to return with information on which platforms their committees and commissions currently use. McCafferty and Solicitor Wright will review the policy language and make recommendations on the labels and permissions.

Members of the public described technical differences between Administrators and Moderators and recalled prior arrangements affecting the Garden Club's insurance coverage. The council asked for further research into whether the 501(c)(3) Garden Club—which receives Borough funds—should fall under Borough purview and insurance coverage.
