Long Branch was split off from Ocean Township and incorporated on April 11, 1867 with a commission form of government, the Long Branch Commission. Long Branch was reincorporated on April 8, 1903 as a city. It is currently governed under the Mayor-Council (Plan A) form of municipal government under the Faulkner Act, enacted by direct petition as of July 1, 1966.[1] The government consists of a mayor and a five-member City Council, whose members are elected at-large in nonpartisan elections to serve four-year terms of office on a concurrent basis.[2] Long Branch has non-partisan elections, the party affiliations are not mentioned on the ballots, and the elections are held in May, not in November, resulting in low turnouts.[3]
