History

Jamesburg was formed as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 19, 1887, when it was created from portions of Monroe Township, based on the results of a referendum held on March 15, 1887. Jamesburg's incorporation was confirmed on April 15, 1915.[21]

The borough was named for James Buckelew, who established a mill that became the nucleus of what is now Jamesburg.[22][23] After Monroe Township officials refused to admit an African-American student into one of its schools, Buckelew funded the construction of a school located at the corner of Church Street and Gatzmer Avenue that would be open to all children. The school was named in his honor and became the derivation of the borough's name.[24]

On July 17, 2005, approximately 7 to 8 inches (18 to 20 cm) of rain fell in Jamesburg, flooding areas on West Railroad Avenue, East Church Street, Pergola Avenue, Willow Street, Forsgate Drive, and Gatzmer Avenue. Roughly 75 to 100 families were evacuated from their homes and housed at the John F. Kennedy Elementary School.[25][26]

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 0.883 square miles (2.289 km2), including 0.877 square miles (2.272 km2) of land and 0.006 square miles (0.016 km2) of water (0.71%).[1][2]

The borough is the older and more urban core area located in the center of and completely surrounded by Monroe Township,[27][28][29] making it part of 21 pairs of "doughnut towns" in the state, where one municipality entirely surrounds another.[30]

Government

Local government

Jamesburg is governed under the Borough form of New Jersey municipal government, which is used in 218 municipalities statewide, making it the most common form of government in New Jersey.[40] The governing body consists of a Mayor and a Borough Council, with all positions elected at-large on a partisan basis as part of the November general election. A Mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. The Borough Council has six members elected to serve three-year terms on a staggered basis, with two seats coming up for election each year in a three-year cycle.[3] The Borough form of government used by Jamesburg is a "weak mayor / strong council" government in which council members act as the legislative body with the mayor presiding at meetings and voting only in the event of a tie. The mayor can veto ordinances subject to an override by a two-thirds majority vote of the council. The mayor makes committee and liaison assignments for council members, and most appointments are made by the mayor with the advice and consent of the council.[41][42]

As of 2020, the Mayor of the Borough of Jamesburg is Democrat Marlene Lowande, whose term of office ends December 31, 2023.[43] Members of the Borough Council are Council President Samantha Rampacek (D, 2022), Laura Czarneski (D, 2022), Daria Ludas (D, 2020), Coleen Rutsky (D, 2020), Sandy Sussman (D, 2021) and Michael Valiant (D, 2021).[4][44][45][46][47][48]

Federal, state and county representation

Jamesburg is located in the 12th Congressional District[49] and is part of New Jersey's 14th state legislative district.[10][50][51]

For the 116th United States Congress, New Jersey's Twelfth Congressional District is represented by Bonnie Watson Coleman (D, Ewing Township).[52][53] New Jersey is represented in the United States Senate by Democrats Cory Booker (Newark, term ends 2021)[54] and Bob Menendez (Paramus, term ends 2025).[55][56]

For the 2018–2019 session (Senate, General Assembly), the 14th Legislative District of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the State Senate by Linda R. Greenstein (D, Plainsboro Township) and in the General Assembly by Daniel R. Benson (D, Hamilton Township, Mercer County) and Wayne DeAngelo (D, Hamilton Township, Mercer County).[57][58]

Middlesex County is governed by a Board of Chosen Freeholders, whose seven members are elected at-large on a partisan basis to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either two or three seats coming up for election each year as part of the November general election. At an annual reorganization meeting held in January, the board selects from among its members a Freeholder Director and Deputy Director. As of 2015, Middlesex County's Freeholders (with party affiliation, term-end year, residence and committee chairmanship listed in parentheses) are Freeholder Director Ronald G. Rios (D, term ends December 31, 2015, Carteret; Ex-officio on all committees),[59] Freeholder Deputy Director Carol Barrett Bellante (D, 2017; Monmouth Junction, South Brunswick Township; County Administration),[60] Kenneth Armwood (D, 2016, Piscataway; Business Development and Education),[61] Charles Kenny ( D, 2016, Woodbridge Township; Finance),[62] H.

Education

The Jamesburg Public Schools serves students in pre-kindergarten through eighth grade.[84] As of the 2017–18 school year, the district and its two schools had an enrollment of 702 students and 54.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.0:1.[85] Schools in the district (with 2017-18 enrollment data from the National Center for Education Statistics[86]) are John F. Kennedy Elementary School[87] (493 students; in grades PreK-5) and Grace M. Breckwedel Middle School[88] (201; 6-8).[89]

Jamesburg High School, founded in 1905, graduated its last class in June 1979. Since 1980, Jamesburg's high school students attend Monroe Township High School in Monroe Township, as part of a sending/receiving relationship with the Monroe Township School District.[90][91] As of the 2017–18 school year, the high school had an enrollment of 2,307 students and 173.7 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.3:1.[92]

With annual tuition costs per student at Monroe Township High School rising past $16,000 as the Monroe district has added debt service costs into their tuition charges, the Jamesburg Public Schools looked for an alternate high school in the area to send students at lower cost, which would have started with the freshman class in 2012–13, though students already enrolled at Monroe Township High School would continue their attendance there until they graduate. The Jamesburg district contacted 18 districts and received interest from high schools in the Freehold Regional High School District, Matawan-Aberdeen Regional School District, Old Bridge Township Public Schools, South Amboy Public Schools and the West Windsor-Plainsboro Regional School District, which had been sent demographic information in July 2011 about the Jamesburg high school population as part of their review process.[93] By October 2011, the district decided to maintain sending students to Monroe Township, as had been done since 1979.[94]

Eighth grade students from all of Middlesex County are eligible to apply to attend the high school programs offered by the Middlesex County Vocational and Technical Schools, a county-wide vocational school district that offers full-time career and technical education at Middlesex County Academy in Edison, the Academy for Allied Health and Biomedical Sciences in Woodbridge Township and at its East Brunswick, Perth Amboy and Piscataway technical high schools, with no tuition charged to students for attendance.[95][96]
