Township Of Bedminster

What Township Of Bedminster does

The township operates a multi-channel service delivery model combining in-person service at Town Hall (One Miller Lane), 24/7 emergency response via 911 (headquartered at 55 Miller Lane), and digital portals powered by third-party municipal technology vendors. Revenue is generated through a hybrid model: mandatory property tax collection (distributed quarterly to schools, county, and municipality on Feb 1, May 1, Aug 1, Nov 1 with a 10-day grace period); recurring sewer utility fees billed quarterly to ~255 properties in Bedminster Village; transaction fees for vital records ($10 per certified copy), marriage licenses ($28), bulk waste permits ($20 per visit or $100 for six permits), and Field of Honor flag adoption ($40-$45); and subscription-based recreation program fees for Camp Bedminster and seasonal activities. The Shop Bedminster loyalty program, administered by Fincredit, links local merchant spending to property tax credits as an economic-development incentive. The township is publicly owned, governed democratically, and operates without parent-company, private-equity, or venture-capital backing. Recent strategic activity centers on digital modernization, including a January 2026 transition to a .gov domain and standardized employee email format, deployment of the CommunityPass recreation registration portal, and integration of Smart911/Rave Mobile Communications for emergency alerting.
