Middlesex is a borough in Middlesex County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. It is located within the Raritan Valley region. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 14,636,[10][11] its highest decennial count and an increase of 1,001 (+7.3%) from the 2010 census count of 13,635,[20][21] which in turn reflected a decline of 82 (−0.6%) from the 13,717 counted in the 2000 census.[22]

Middlesex was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on April 9, 1913, from portions of Piscataway, based on the results of a referendum held on May 6, 1913.[23] The borough was named after Middlesex, England.[24][25]

History

[edit]

The Harris Lane School was a one-room schoolhouse that was the oldest school in Middlesex County, dating back to its construction in the 1790s.[26] The original Pierce School was known as the East Bound Brook School House and The Parker House was also used for education until it was converted into a two-family house. As the Borough grew new schools were constructed to accommodate many more students. Our Lady of Mt. Virgin School was the first parochial school built in 1954.

In 1905, the Lincoln section of Middlesex organized a volunteer fire company and that set the organization of four other fire companies in the borough.

Middlesex was a portion of Piscataway Township, until May 6, 1913, when it was incorporated as a separate entity through the action of the state legislature and local referendum.[23] George Harris was elected as the first mayor and the first borough council was elected at the same time. Two constables were the law enforcement officers and were soon assisted by five appointed marshals.

Government

[edit]

Local government

[edit]

Middlesex 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.[37] The governing body is comprised of a mayor and a borough council, with all positions elected at-large on a partisan basis as part of the November general election. A mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. The borough council includes 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.[7] The borough form of government used by Middlesex is a "weak mayor / strong council" government in which council members act as the legislative body with the mayor presiding at meetings and voting only in the event 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.[38][39]

The seven-member governing body is empowered to enact local ordinances, to levy municipal taxes and conduct the affairs of the community. In almost all cases, it can review and approve the actions of other Middlesex Borough committees and agencies. The mayor and Borough Council conduct all of their business during monthly meetings open to the public. All legislative powers of the borough are exercised by the mayor and council. These powers can take the form of a resolution, ordinance or proclamation.

As of 2024, the mayor of Middlesex is Republican John "Jack" Mikolajczyk, whose term of office ends December 31, 2023. Members of the Middlesex Borough Council are Council President Michael Conahan (R, 2026), Jeremiah A. Carnes (R, 2025), Robert Dessino (R, 2025), Kevin Dotey (R, 2026), Martin Quinn (R, 2024) and Douglas Rex (R, 2024).[3][40][41][42][43]

In July 2022, the borough council appointed Michael Conahan to fill the seat expiring in December 2023 that had been held by Amy Flood. Conahan served on an interim basis until the November 2022 election when he was elected to serve the balance of the term.[42]

In January 2020, the borough council appointed Amy Flood to fill the seat expiring in December 2020 that was vacated by John L. Madden when he took office as mayor.[44][45]

Until his selection in early 2006 to serve as borough administrator, Ron Dobies had been one of the longest-tenured mayors in New Jersey, with 26 years of service to Middlesex. Dobies left his position as mayor in 2006 and took a position as the borough's administrator. After being fired in 2008, he was successful in his suit against the borough and was restored to his position. In 2011 he ran for mayor again and won a four-year term that ended in 2015.[46]

Federal, state and county representation

Middlesex County is governed by a Board of County Commissioners, whose seven members are elected at-large on a partisan basis to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either two or three seats coming up for election each year as part of the November general election. At an annual reorganization meeting held in January, the board selects from among its members a commissioner director and deputy director.[54] As of 2025, Middlesex County's Commissioners (with party affiliation, term-end year, and residence listed in parentheses) are:

"After serving the public for nearly four decades and more than half of his life, Ronald S. Dobies, who this week ended his most recent term as mayor of Middlesex Borough, may at last take a break.... Becoming mayor in 1980, Dobies' first tour in the borough's top chair lasted more than a quarter-century. After being mayor for 26 years, Dobies became administrator in 2006. He was terminated in April 2008 but sued the municipality, claiming the council acted improperly by failing to pass a resolution formally removing him from the job. A judge sided with Dobies, and ordered the borough to pay him through April 8, 2008, plus 90 days' pay, plus pay for vacation and sick days that Dobies would have earned. He was then given the job back after offering to return at the nominal $1 annual salary.... But Dobies weathered that storm and in 2011 made another run for mayor, defeating the GOP and regaining the mayor's post."
