Wyckoff is governed by a Township Committee, which consists of five members elected at large for staggered three-year terms. This custom assures that no more than two committee members are elected each year. On January 1, the Township Committee conducts an annual meeting to organize the government for the new year. The Committee members select a chairperson who serves as Mayor. The Mayor chairs meetings of the Township Committee, signs documents on behalf of the Township and performs wedding ceremonies.
The Township Committee, as a whole, exercises legislative and executive powers. The Township Committee conducts the business of the government on Tuesday evenings. Regular business meetings are held the first and third Tuesday of the month at 8:00 p.m. Consistent with the Open Public Meetings Act all are invited to attend. During the "Public Comments" portion of this meeting the public may address the Township Committee on any municipal matter.
Work sessions are conducted on the first, second and third Tuesday of the month at 7:30 p.m. and are open to be public. A ten minute "Public Comments" period is alloted for the public to address the Committee on any municipal matter.
