Moorestown Council To Discuss Manager Position In Closed Session

MOORESTOWN, NJ — Moorestown Council will meet in closed session to discuss the hiring process for a new township manager twice over the next two weeks.

The first meeting will take place on Wednesday, May 30, 4:30 p.m. The second will take place on Thursday, June 7, 5:30 p.m.

Both meetings will be held in the donut room in town hall, 111 West Second Street. Formal action will not be taken at either meeting.

Tom Merchel resigned from the position earlier this year. He will remain as the township's chief financial officer (CFO), the position he held prior to accepting the position of township manager following Scott Carew's resignation in 2017.

Merchel wanted to eliminate one of his roles, as being the township manager was never intended to be a permanent solution.
