Government

Local government

Fairview is governed under the borough form of New Jersey municipal government, which is used in 218 municipalities (of the 564) statewide, making it the most common form of government in New Jersey.[42] The governing body consists of a mayor and a borough council, all of whom are elected on a partisan basis in the November general election. A mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. The borough council is comprised of six members elected to serve three-year terms on a staggered basis, with two seats coming up for election each year in a three-year cycle.[6] The form of government used by Fairview is a "weak mayor / strong council" type, where council members serves as the legislative body, while the mayor presides over meetings and only casts a vote in case of a tie. The mayor can veto ordinances subject to an override by a two-thirds majority vote of the council. The mayor makes committee and liaison assignments for council members, and most appointments are made by the mayor with the advice and consent of the council.[43][44]

As of 2024, the mayor of Fairview is Democrat Violeta Berisha, whose term of office ends December 31, 2027.

Members of the Fairview Borough Council are Florencia Irma Asto (D, 2024; elected to serve an unexpired term), Stephen Burke (D, 2026), Jhon Gomez (D, 2024), Albert Lukin (D, 2026), Russell Martin (D, 2025) and Stephen J. Russo (D, 2024).[3][45][46][47][48][49]

In May 2017, the borough council selected Violetta Berisha to fill the seat expiring December 2019 that became vacant following the resignation of John Rossi.[50] Berisha served on an interim basis until the November 2017 general election, when she was elected to serve the balance of the term of office.[51]

Russell Martin was named in January 2012 to fill the council vacancy of the seat that had been held by John Pierotti following his death, and won the remainder of the term the 2012 general election, running unopposed for the seat.[52][53]
