Hopatcong (Шаблон:IPAc-en Шаблон:Respell) is a borough in Sussex County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 14,362,[1][2] a decrease of 785 (−5.2%) from the 2010 census count of 15,147,[3][4] which in turn reflected a decline of 741 (−4.7%) from the 15,888 counted in the 2000 census.[5]

History

The town of Hopatcong has a rich history, given its relationship with New York City. It borders Lake Hopatcong, a partially man-made lake that is now a source of much recreation and desirable real estate, and is the biggest lake in New Jersey. The community, Шаблон:Convert west of New York City, began as a summer getaway for the wealthy in NYC who primarily sought access to the lake. An amusement park, called "Bertrand's Island", sprang up and was accessible via the lake, trolley or by car through Mount Arlington. The construction of Interstate 80, a highway that stretches from Teaneck, New Jersey, all the way across the country to San Francisco, California, triggered rapid growth in New York City's suburbs and led to Hopatcong becoming a permanent residential community. The area had been called "Brookland" in the 19th century and the lake that was expanded to become Lake Hopatcong had been known as "Great Pond" or "Brookland Pond".[6][7] During the 1830s, the name of the community had been modified to "Brooklyn", to match the spelling of the city on New York's Long Island.[8] Hopatcong was originally established as the Town of Brooklyn on April 2, 1898, from portions of Byram Township. On March 22, 1901, the Borough of Hopatcong replaced Brooklyn.[9] In 1922, residents of Byram Cove, Northwood, and other areas to the west of the original land area of the borough, voted to leave Byram Township and join Hopatcong, leaving the Borough with its current borders.[10]

While the origin of the borough's name is unclear, it is said to derive from Native American phrases variously meaning "stone over water" or "pipestone", among other variations.[11][12][13]

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 12.35 square miles (31.99 km2), including 10.89 square miles (28.21 km2) of land and 1.46 square miles (3.78 km2) of water (11.83%).[14][15]

Unincorporated communities, localities and place names located partially or completely within the borough include Bear Pond, Byram Cove, Cow Tongue Point, Davis Cove, Glasser, Hendersons Cove, Roseville, Sharps Rock and Sperry Springs.[16]

Hopatcong borders Byram Township, Sparta Township and Stanhope in Sussex County; and Jefferson Township, Mount Arlington and Roxbury Township in Morris County.[17][18][19]

Government

Local government

Hopatcong is governed under the borough form of New Jersey municipal government, one of 218 municipalities (of the 564) statewide, making it the most common form of government in New Jersey.[24] The governing body is comprised of the mayor and the borough council, with all positions elected at-large on a partisan basis as part of the November general election. The 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.[25] The borough form of government used by Hopatcong 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.[26][27]

Шаблон:As of, the mayor of Hopatcong Borough is Republican Michael Francis, whose term of office ends December 31, 2023. Members of the Hopatcong Borough Council are Bradley Hoferkamp (R, 2022), Jennifer Johnson (R, 2022), Dawn Roberts (R, 2024), Richard Schindelar (R, 2023), Ryan Smith (R, 2024) and John Young (R, 2023).[28][29][30][31][32]

In December 2016, the borough council chose Michael Francis from three candidates nominated by the Republican municipal committee to fill the seat expiring in December 2019 that had been held by Sylvia Petillo until she resigned from office the previous month in advance of taking a seat on the Sussex County Board of Chosen Freeholders; Francis will serve on an interim basis until the November 2017 general election, when voters will choose a candidate to serve the balance of the term of office.[33] In turn, Bradley Hoferkamp was chosen to fill the council seat vacated by Francis, including the three-year term that Francis had won in November 2016; Hoferkamp will also serve until November 2017, when the balance of the term will be filled by a candidate selected by voters.[34]

In May 2014, the borough council appointed Frank Padula to fill the vacancy of Richard Hoer, who had resigned the previous month.[35] Padula served on an interim basis until the November 2014 general election, when he ran unopposed and won the balance of the term of office expiring in December 2016.[36][37]
