Hamburg 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 3,266,[9] a decrease of 11 (−0.3%) from the 2010 census count of 3,277,[18][19] which in turn reflected an increase of 172 (+5.5%) from the 3,105 counted in the 2000 census.[20] The United States Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program calculated that the population of Hamburg increased by 42 (+1.3%) to 3,308 in 2022.[10]

In 1753, when Sussex County was formed from portions of Morris County, the area of present-day Hamburg was part of New Town; on February 25, 1762, it became part of the newly established Hardyston Township. On April 8, 1793, when Vernon Township was formed from Hardyston, Hamburg was included within the boundaries of Vernon. In 1852, the boundary line was changed so that Hamburg was again in Hardyston Township. Hamburg was incorporated as a borough on March 19, 1920, from portions of Hardyston Township, based on the results of a referendum held on April 24, 1920.[21] The borough was named after Hamburg, Germany.[22]

Geography[edit]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 1.17 square miles (3.03 km2), including 1.15 square miles (2.96 km2) of land and 0.02 square miles (0.06 km2) of water (2.05%).[1][2]

Hamburg borders the Sussex County municipalities of Franklin and Hardyston Township.[23][24]

Government[edit]

Local government[edit]

Hamburg 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.[31] 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.[6] The borough form of government used by Hamburg 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.[32][33]

As of 2022, the mayor of Hamburg Borough is Republican Paul Marino, whose term of office ends December 31, 2022. Members of the Borough Council are John Burd (R, 2022), John Haig (R, 2024), Richard Krasnomowitz (R, 2023), Russell Law (R, 2022), Joyce Oehler (R, 2023) and Mark S. Sena (R, 2024).[3][34][35][36][37][38]

In August 2018, Joyce Oehler was appointed to fill the seat expiring in December 2020 that had been held by Chris Fitzpatrick until he resigned from office.[39] In November 2018, Oehler was elected to serve the balance of the term of office.[38]

In April 2014, the borough council selected former councilmember Russell Law from a list of three candidates nominated by the Republican municipal committee to fill the vacant seat expiring in December 2016 of Chris Kelly, who had resigned from office after announcing that he would be moving out of the borough.[40] Law served on an interim basis until the November 2014 general election, when he was elected to serve the one year remaining on the term of office.[41]

Hamburg is located in the 5th Congressional District[42] and is part of New Jersey's 24th state legislative district.[43][44][45]

Sussex County is governed by a Board of County Commissioners whose five members are elected at-large in partisan elections on a staggered basis, with either one or two seats coming up for election each year. At an annual reorganization meeting held in the beginning of January, the board selects a Commissioner Director and Deputy Director from among its members, with day-to-day supervision of the operation of the county delegated to a County Administrator.[52] As of 2024, Sussex County's Commissioners are:
