This is ESO's second step in our effort to bring more sunshine into local government. We are publishing the position descriptions for the Essex County Recreation Director, the Wetlands Engineer. Also included are the statutes for Industrial Development Authority (IDA), and the Planning Commission. Transparency includes informing the public of what the specific duties and responsibilities are for our elected and appointed leaders of our County Government.
Please note that for the IDA and the Planning Commission the statutes require the enactment of local ordinances (ie Essex County Ordinances) which are not currently readily available to the Public. The ordinances will be a topic in a future article.
This may have an additional benefit because the collection of data could be transferred directly to the much needed new Essex County Government web site.
Future posting will include more individual county government position descriptions, the statutory duties of the Airport Authority and other Essex County public bodies, and revisions to the county position descriptions as they are proposed. We will also begin posting the Essex County Schools position description later in the summer.
The following position descriptions and statutory basis for the IDA and the Planning Commission are now open to the public:
