News and Updates:

The North Plainfield Police Department is scheduled for an assessment as part of its program to achieve accreditation by verifying that it meets recognized professional best practices.

Administered by the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police, the accreditation program requires agencies to comply with best practice standards in five basic areas: the administrative function, the personnel function, the operations function, the investigative function, and the arrestee/detainee function.

Agency employees and the public are invited to offer comments by calling 908-300-0002 on Monday, January 24, 2022 between the hours of 10:00am – 11:00am. Comments will be taken by the Assessment Team. Email comments can be sent to the police department at at jmazza@npmail.org.

Telephone comments are limited to 5 minutes and must address the agency’s ability to comply with the NJSACOP standards. Please contact Sergeant Joseph Mazza at 908-769-2970 for more information.

Anyone wishing to submit written comments about the North Plainfield Police Department’s ability to comply with the standards for accreditation may send them by email to Harry J Delgado, Ed.S Accreditation Program Director, hdelgado@njsacop.org, or write to the New Jersey State Association of Chief’s of Police, Law Enforcement Accreditation Commission at 751 Route 73 North, Suite 12, Marlton, N.J. 08053.

Due to the sudden and dramatic increase in community spread of the Covid virus and in the interest of protecting public health, North Plainfield Borough Hall will be closed to public access effective Tuesday, January 4.

All offices will continue to be staffed as usual between the hours of 8:00am and 4:30pm daily, Monday through Friday. Those having business to conduct at Borough hall may do so by telephone, mail or drop boxes located in the front vestibule, which will remain accessible 24/7.

Select forms and other information will also be available in the vestibule.

We regret having to take this step and plan to resume in-person service as soon as it is safe to do so.

Please continue to practice safe health practices such as social distancing, wearing masks, washing hands and most importantly, getting fully vaccinated and a booster shot.

Thank you for your understanding.
