Government

Local government

Fair Lawn operates under a Council-Manager (Plan E of the Faulkner Act) form of New Jersey municipal government by a five-member Borough Council. Members of the Borough Council serve four-year terms in office, and are elected in partisan elections in odd-numbered years on a staggered basis, with two or three seats coming up for election every other year. All policy making power is concentrated in the council. The mayor is selected at a reorganization meeting held after each election by the council from among its members, and presides over its meetings with no separate policy-making power. The manager is appointed by the council to serve as the municipal chief executive and administrative official."2005 New Jersey Legislative District Data Book", Rutgers University Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy, April 2005, p. 160.]

Members of the Borough Council are Mayor Steven Weinstein (D, term ends December 31, 2011), Jeanne Baratta (R, 2009), Lisa Swain (D, 2011) Joseph Tedeschi (D, 2011) and Ed Trawinski (R, 2009).

In elections held on November 6, 2007, voters filled three seats for four-year terms on the borough council. Democrats swept all three posts, with incumbents Steven Weinstein (3,573 votes) and Joseph Tedeschi (3,354) winning re-election, joined by running mate Lisa Swain (3,405).

Republicans Baratta and Trawinski received approximately 54% of the vote in November 2005 (defeating Democrats David L. Ganz and Allan Caan) despite the heavy Democratic registration and the borough's landslide for Governor Jon Corzine. Moreover, Councilman Joseph Tedeschi is a former Republican and an avowed "traditional, conservative" Democrat.

Standard Borough Council meetings are televised on local cable TV when held in the Council chambers in the Fair Lawn Municipal Building. Work sessions, where laws are discussed and prepared for adoption, are not usually televised.

Fair Lawn High School for grades 9-12 (1,476 students). The high school itself is well regarded for its music department and academic skills.

Transportation

Fair Lawn has several main roads crossing through it forming a semi-3x3 grid. Saddle River Road, Plaza Road, and River Road (County Route 507) run North-South, Broadway, Morlot Avenue and Fair Lawn Avenue run East-West, and Route 208 runs Northwest-Southeast.

Broadway becomes Route 4 in Elmwood Park to the west and eventually Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard in Paterson. To the East, it becomes Route 4 going into Paramus and is less than 10 miles (16 km) from the George Washington Bridge.

Fair Lawn Avenue is considered the borough's main street, containing its Borough Hall, Police Station, Public Library, and Community School. The road goes west over the Passaic River into Paterson, and east into Paramus where it becomes Century Road.

The intersection of Fair Lawn Avenue and Plaza Road form what could be considered a "town center", with several shopping plazas, and the Radburn train station all within walking distance. Other commercial areas include Broadway and River Road, but neither is particularly amenable to pedestrian traffic despite attempts by local business owners to make them so.

Route 208 has its southern terminus in Fair Lawn, and goes through the middle of the borough from the northwest to the southeast, where it eventually merges with Broadway to become Route 4 not far from Paramus. Taken the other direction, Route 208 flows northwest to Interstate 287 in Oakland.

Saddle River Road goes through the eastern side of Fair Lawn and into Saddle Brook, where it provides a link to both the Garden State Parkway and Interstate 80.

Route 20 southbound becomes Route 21 which separates Fair Lawn from Paterson and northbound Hawthorne.

Fair Lawn uses a somewhat unique street address numbering system. Instead of an address being, for example, 55 Some Street, most Fair Lawn addresses are given hyphenated numbers, such as 10-13 Some Street. This numbering system is also used in Queens, New York City. Exceptions to this numbering system generally exist on the Glen Rock and Hawthorne sides of Fair Lawn. The first numbers (before the dash) correspond to block-distances from Broadway (on streets that run east-west) and to the numbered streets in the borough (example: 2nd Street, 17th Street, etc.) on the streets that run North-South; with the highest numbers being in the low 40's, and the lowest numbers being 0-30, etc.

Fair Lawn is served by the Radburn and Broadway train stations on the New Jersey Transit Bergen County Line. The stations offer service to Hoboken Terminal, with connections at Secaucus Junction to Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan and to most other New Jersey Transit train lines. New Jersey Transit buses include the 144, 148, 160, 164 and 196 routes to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Midtown Manhattan; the, 171, 175 to the George Washington Bridge Bus Terminal; and the 746, 758 and 770 lines, offering local service.

Fair Lawn also has one of the original organized Street Hockey/DekHockey programs in the state. Managed and run through its Recreation Department, this hockey program started officially in 1976. Originally played in the parking lot of the Radburn Grange Hall, it moved to an official rink in 1977 at Memorial Park. The program serves children aged 8-17, and runs during the winter months concluding early spring. Over the years the program grew to accommodate three separate rinks. The Fair Lawn Flyers competed in the first national street hockey championships in 1976 in Leominster, Massachusetts. [Cook, Joan. [http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F60B10F73F5F167493C0A9178FD85F428785F9 "Flyers Take Aim at Street Hockey Title"] , "The New York Times", April 2, 1976. Accessed September 9, 2008.] In subsequent years Fair Lawn sent teams to both the regional and national tournaments (as teams known as Fair Lawn Flyers and Fair Lawn Chiefs). Two of the three Fair Lawn Dekhockey rinks are named after Joe Gambucci and Bredehorst; both volunteered in multiple capacities for the league. Joe Gambucci was one of the original volunteers to start the program.Fact|date=September 2008
