Meet Mike
Mike Inganamort was re-elected to the Chester Township Council in 2020 and is in his third year as Council President. He was instrumental in developing the town's 2019 and 2020 budgets, which held taxes flat despite greater contributions to the capital improvement fund.
Mike co-founded a working group of Morris County municipalities that has forged new, cost-saving shared service agreements in the areas of public works, municipal courts, and animal control. Mike has been the Council's liaison to the municipal court and the Parks Committee for several years, and has also rotated as liaison to the finance office, the Board of Health, the Recreation Committee, and the Office of Emergency Management. He previously served on the Chester Township Planning Board.
Mike is an active member of the New Jersey League of Municipalities and its Legislative Committee on Tax & Finance. He was recognized by the League in 2021 as a Municipal Leader for his contributions to the study of local government.
As a volunteer Merit Badge counselor, Mike helps local Scouts with the citizenship merit badges.
