Community Recognition Committee

About Us

The Advisory Roseland Community Recognition Committee shall be resposible for researching, selecting, interviewing, and nominating to the Mayor and the Council for the Borough of Roseland deserving individuals or groups in the Borough to receive the Borough of Roseland Community Service Award. The award recognizes members of the community who have generously given their time and who, through their volunteer activities, have enhanced the quality of life in the Borough and the community at large. Those who hold or have held elective office are not eligable to receive the award, unless they have a separate and notable volunteer record. Also, ineligable are those who may have done much in the community but have received compensation for such work. The Committee shall meet on a flexible quarterly basis to choose the name of individuals or groups to be recognized at a Borough Council meeting. There should be at least one award presented each year.
