Prescribing standards and rules of administrative practice and procedure, including the City’s Civil Rights Policy

As an Appointed Official, the Business Administrator daily interacts with the Administration and Governing Body, making direct public contact somewhat limited.

Monitoring and Enforcement of the City’s Civil Rights Policy

It is the policy of the City of Burlington to treat the public, employees, prospective employees, appointees, volunteers, and contractors in a manner consistent with all applicable civil rights and regulations, including but not limited to the Federal Civil Rights Act of 1964, as subsequently amended, the New Jersey Law against Discrimination, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and Conscientious Employee Protection Act.

In 2010, Common Council determined that written procedures needed to be established by the Business Administrator to accomplish this policy, to establish a system to monitor compliance, to require compliance training, and annually to communicate a statement from the governing body expressing its unequivocal commitment to enforce this resolution.
