Township of Brick

What Township of Brick does

The Township of Brick is a municipal government entity in Ocean County, New Jersey, serving as the local governing body for residents and property owners within the township's jurisdiction. Operating under a Mayor-Council form of government led by Mayor Lisa Crate, the township delivers a comprehensive suite of public services including police, fire, public works, recreation, senior services, building and code enforcement, engineering, land use, tax collection, and municipal court. The primary customer base comprises all township residents and property owners, with services delivered through physical government offices at 401 Chambers Bridge Road, an online e-service portal, and community engagement programs.

The township's digital infrastructure centers on two interconnected platforms: the official municipal website (bricknj.gov), which serves as the central hub for government information, department directories, news, tax payments, and community resources, and the E-Service Portal (eservice.bricktownship.net), which provides 24/7 online service request submission and tracking for issues such as potholes, road flooding, litter, and code violations. The website supports translation in over 50 languages, broadening accessibility across the resident population. The township maintains a multi-channel community engagement strategy including official accounts on Facebook (@BrickTwpNJGovernment), Instagram (@townshipofbrick), and YouTube (@BrickTwpNJ), a weekly Municipal Update email newsletter distributed via Constant Contact, and the NIXLE community notification system for emergency alerts.

Revenue is generated primarily through property taxes collected via the Tax Collector's office, supplemented by municipal fees for building and construction permits, recreation program fees (including youth sports, early childhood programs, and Trader's Cove Marina), and other service charges. No private ownership structure exists; the township is a public government entity with governance provided by elected officials. The township maintains referral partnerships with co-located public entities including Brick Public Schools, the Brick Fire Department, the Brick Township Municipal Utilities Authority (BTMUA), the Brick Library/Ocean County Library System, the Brick Chamber of Commerce, and BTV (community television) to coordinate community services and economic development.
