During this difficult time, please rest assured that the Borough has been working tirelessly to ensure the safety of you and your family and the continuance of essential government operations.
Public access to Borough Hall has been restricted, but services continue online and a drop box has been placed in the Longport Police Department for borough related business. Tax and utility payment, as well as Municipal Court information can be found online at www.longportnj.gov.
Limited Borough Hall office staff continue to work in the building and will be available by telephone. If your phone call is not answered immediately, please leave a message and your call will be returned. The Public Works Department will continue operations with a partial crew, all while following CDC guidelines, including social distancing.
