Runnemede is a borough in Camden County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 8,324,[10][11] a decrease of 144 (−1.7%) from the 2010 census count of 8,468,[20][21] which in turn reflected a decline of 65 (−0.8%) from the 8,533 counted in the 2000 census.[22]

Runnemede was authorized to incorporate as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 23, 1926, from portions of the now-defunct Centre Township, and was then made independent based on the results of a referendum held on April 24, 1926. Acts enabling creation of the boroughs of Bellmawr, Mount Ephraim, and Lawnside were passed during the same two-day period.[23] The derivation of the borough's name is uncertain, though claims that it derives from a Native American term for "running water" have been refuted and connections to General George Meade or to "rum we need" for a nearby tavern are probably apocryphal.[24] Sources have cited the name as coming from Runnymede, England.[25]

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 2.11 square miles (5.45 km2), including 2.05 square miles (5.31 km2) of land and 0.05 square miles (0.14 km2) of water (2.56%).[1][2]

Unincorporated communities, localities and place names located partially or completely within the borough include Glendora.[26]

The borough borders Barrington, Bellmawr, Gloucester Township and Magnolia in Camden County. Runnemede also borders Deptford Township in Gloucester County.[27][28][29]

Government

Local government

Runnemede Municipal Building

Runnemede is governed under the borough form of New Jersey municipal government, which is used in 218 municipalities (of the 564) statewide, making it the most common form of government in New Jersey.[37] The governing body is comprised of a mayor and a borough council, with all positions elected at-large on a partisan basis as part of the November general election. A mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. The borough council includes six members elected to serve three-year terms on a staggered basis, with two seats coming up for election each year in a three-year cycle.[7] The borough form of government used by Runnemede is a "weak mayor / strong council" government in which council members act as the legislative body with the mayor presiding at meetings and voting only in the event of a tie. The mayor can veto ordinances subject to an override by a two-thirds majority vote of the council. The mayor makes committee and liaison assignments for council members, and most appointments are made by the mayor with the advice and consent of the council.[38][39]

As of 2023, the mayor of Runnemede is Democrat Nick Kappatos, whose term of office ends December 31, 2026. Members of the Borough Council are Council President Patricia Tartaglia Passio (D, 2023), Luis "Rich" Cepero (D, 2025), Robert Farrell (D, 2025), Eleanor M. Kelly (D, 2024), Craig Laubenstein (D, 2024) and John Ranieri (D, 2023).[4][40][41][42][43]

Camden County is governed by a Board of County Commissioners composed of seven members chosen at-large in partisan elections for three-year terms on a staggered basis by the residents of the county, with either two or three seats up for election each year as part of the November general election. At a reorganization meeting held in January after each election, the newly constituted Board of Commissioners selects one member to serve as Director and another as Deputy Director, each serving a one-year term in that role.[53] As of 2025, Camden County's Commissioners are: Commissioner Director Louis Cappelli Jr. (D, Collingswood, 2026),[54] Commissioner Deputy Director Edward T.
