Teaneck, New Jersey was incorporated on February 19, 1895. It was created in Chapter XXVII in the ''Acts of the General Assembly of the State of New Jersey'' in 1895. The office of mayor did not initially exist as such. In 1895, the township form of government was a direct democracy, with a three-member township committee handling the affairs of the township between annual town meetings.
