Rules for Citizen Participation in Council meetings

The City of Ocean City was incorporated March 25, 1897. Since July 1, 1978, the city has operated under the Mayor-Council form of government pursuant to the Faulkner Act, Chapter 69A of Title 40 of the New Jersey Statutes.

This form of government provides for election of a mayor and seven council members. Three council members may be elected at large and four are elected by wards; and serve four-year concurrent or staggered terms.

 The Council powers consist of: 
• Adopting Resolutions and Ordinances.
• Reviewing, revising and adopting the municipal budget.
• Authorizing the debt and borrowing of money for capital projects through bond ordinances.
• Levying taxes.
• Working with the mayor and administrative branch of the government in establishing and implementing municipal policy.
