Monmouth County Commissioners highlight
Eatontown Shared Services success stories
Borough has
received services since 1998
FREEHOLD, NJ – As part of
their series on successful shared services partnerships, the Monmouth County
Board of County Commissioners would like to highlight the Shared Services
agreements between Monmouth County and the Borough of Eatontown.
The Borough of
Eatontown has utilized the Commodity Resale Agreement since 2008 and the
Municipal Assistance Agreement since 2013. With the Commodity Resale Agreement,
the County purchases certain commodities from other contracting units to be
provided by purchase.
Some commodities
may include gasoline, snow removal chemicals, public works supplies/materials
and more. The Municipal Assistance Agreement allows government entities to
request various services such as street sweeping, salt and snow services,
vehicle washing and more.
“The Commodity
Resale Agreement and the Municipal Assistance Agreement are offered through the
Monmouth County Department of Public Works and Engineering and provide a wide
range of services to our municipal partners,” said Commissioner Director Thomas
A. Arnone, liaison to the Monmouth County Office of Shared Services. “Entities
that are looking for Municipal Assistance or a commodity to purchase should
contact the Office of Shared Services to explore how the County can assist them
with various services.”
“The Borough of Eatontown is thankful to
participate with the Monmouth County Office of Shared Services. Our partnership
with the County saves local taxpayer money and municipal staff time by
leveraging the County’s economy of scale. We periodically review which
municipal tasks can be performed via shared services and are quite pleased with
the results,” said Mayor of Eatontown, Anthony Talerico.
Other agreements that the Borough of
Eatontown has are the Open Public Records System (OPRS-RIM), MOD IV Property
Assessment and iTaxMap.
The Monmouth County Office of Shared Services facilitates
partnerships with local government entities through which the County provides
services, equipment and resources to a local government which helps to reduce
costs and increase efficiencies.
