Pohatcong Township is a township in Warren County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[15] As of the 2020 United States census, the township's population was 3,241,[7] a decrease of 98 (−2.9%) from the 2010 census count of 3,339,[16][17] which in turn reflected a decline of 77 (−2.3%) from the 3,416 counted in the 2000 census.[18]

The name Pohatcong is thought to be derived from the Lenni Lenape Native American term meaning "stream between split hills".[19]

History

Pohatcong Township was officially established in 1881. On March 24, 1881, Chapter 145 of the Acts of the New Jersey General Assembly was published defining and creating Pohatcong Township. The act to form Pohatcong had been introduced by Assemblyman William Fritts and, once law, was to take effect January 1 of the following year.[20] Pohatcong was incorporated on January 1, 1882.[21] It was divided off of Greenwich Township. Pohatcong township's name comes from Lenape Native Americans, who called the area "split hills stream outlet". The industrialized center of the township was separated to form Alpha borough, on April 27, 1911.[22]

Geography

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the township had a total area of 13.76 square miles (35.63 km2), including 13.37 square miles (34.63 km2) of land and 0.39 square miles (1.00 km2) of water (2.81%).[1][23]

Finesville (with a 2010 Census population of 175[24]) and Upper Pohatcong (2010 population of 1,781[25]) are unincorporated communities and census-designated places (CDPs) located within the township.[26][27][28] Other unincorporated communities, localities and place names located partially or completely within the township include Carpentersville, Hughesville, Huntington, Kennedys, Riegelsville, Springtown, Warren and Warren Glen.[29]

Pohatcong Township borders the municipalities of Greenwich Township, Lopatcong Township and Phillipsburg in Warren County; and Bethlehem Township, Bloomsbury and Holland Township in Hunterdon County.[30][31] The borough of Alpha is completely surrounded by Pohatcong Township, making it part of 21 pairs of "doughnut towns" in the state, where one municipality entirely surrounds another.[32]

Government

Local government

Pohatcong Township is governed by the Faulkner Act (small municipality) form of government. The Faulkner Act, formally known as the Optional Municipal Charter Law, allows municipalities to adopt a Small Municipality form of government only for municipalities with a population of under 12,000 at the time of adoption. The township is one of 18 municipalities (of the 564) statewide that use this form of government.[43] The government is comprised of the Mayor and the four-member Township Council, with all positions elected at-large on a non-partisan basis. The Mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. Council members serve a term of three years, which are staggered so that either one or two seats come up for election each year as part of the November general election.[5][44] In May 2011, the township council submitted an ordinance to shift the non-partisan elections from May to November. The shift, which took effect in November 2012, was intended to save the municipality $8,000 a year in costs associated with conducting the election.[45]

As of 2022, the Mayor of Pohatcong Township is David S. Slack, whose term of office expires on December 31, 2023.[46] Members of the Township Council are Stephen Babinsky (2024), Ingrid Gray (2023), Kevin J. Melvin (2022) and John S. Stillo (2022).[2][47][48][49][50]

In September 2019, Ingrid Gray was appointed to fill the seat expiring in December 2020 that had been held by Anthony S. Vangeli until he left office.[51]

At 22 years of age when he was inaugurated on July 1, 2011, James R. Kern III became the youngest municipal executive serving in office in the State of New Jersey.[52][53]

Federal, state, and county representation

Pohatcong Township is located in the 7th Congressional District[54] and is part of New Jersey's 23rd state legislative district.[55]

For the 118th United States Congress, New Jersey's 7th congressional district is represented by Thomas Kean Jr. (R, Westfield).[56] New Jersey is represented in the United States Senate by Democrats Cory Booker (Newark, term ends 2027) and Andy Kim (Moorestown, term ends 2031).[57][58]

Warren County is governed by a three-member Board of County Commissioners, who are chosen at-large on a staggered basis in partisan elections with one seat coming up for election each year as part of the November general election. At an annual reorganization meeting held in the beginning of January, the board selects one of its members to serve as Commissioner Director and other as Deputy Director.[60] As of 2025, Warren County's Commissioners are:

Deputy Director Jason J. Sarnoski (R, Lopatcong Township; 2025),[61] Lori Ciesla (R, Lopatcong Township; 2026),[62] and Director James R. Kern III (R, Pohatcong Township; 2027).[63][64]
