The Medford Town Council experienced some changes at the top during its annual reorganization meeting on Monday Jan. 4.
Jeffrey Beenstock was appointed by his fellow councilmen as the new mayor for 2016, replacing former mayor Charles Watson.
Watson was nominated by the council as the new deputy mayor.
The men were sworn in by oath to commit themselves to performing all of the duties of a township mayor to the best of their abilities.
They wasted no time hosting their first bimonthly meeting of the new year the following night.
The group will consider all of the matters that were examined at last night’s meeting and discuss them at their next meeting on Jan. 19 at 7:30 p.m. in the municipal building.
