Oceanport Residents Question Bennett's Number Of Jobs

Some Oceanport residents are wondering why Borough Administrator John O. Bennett III doesn’t have a contract for his $125,000 job and are calling for him to step down from other positions, according to app.com

Bennett also serves as the borough’s public works director. He was appointed to both positions in January 2014. He served as the borough attorney prior to that.

A spokesperson for the state Department of Community Affairs says there are no state statutes requiring contracts for municipal administrators.

Residents also question how Bennett can devote enough time to the borough, since he is also the attorney for Colts Neck and Keansburg.
