Morristown’s Economic & Community Development Department works to strengthen the local economy, enhance community life, and support a vibrant future for all who live, work, and visit here. The department leads initiatives in community engagement, public communication, business support, and event planning.
Key focus areas include:
-
Organizing and supporting events that reflect Morristown’s character and bring people together
-
Promoting Morristown as a destination through coordinated marketing and outreach
-
Facilitating public involvement in town goals, planning, and decision-making
-
Building strong relationships with local businesses, organizations, and residents
Since June 2025, the department has been led by Adele Taplin, who brings over 15 years of experience in economic development, public engagement, and strategic partnerships. Community outreach and collaboration remain at the heart of the work, and efforts are underway to gather input and ideas from stakeholders across town.
