The interviews were part of the Commission’s fact-finding process and did not result in a change to Millburn’s government structure. The participants said annual elections and three-year terms can disrupt long-term planning, while a larger governing body and nonpartisan elections could improve continuity and focus attention on local issues. The Commission planned to present preliminary findings to the Township Committee and the public on February 3.
