Mountainside Police Department

Reported as: Mountainside PDMunicipal police

Jurisdiction context

Not a civil service jurisdiction

This department is not among the NJCSC Appendix A jurisdictions, so major discipline here follows a different statutory track (generally N.J.S.A. 40A:14 for municipal police), with appeals that usually go to the Superior Court rather than the Civil Service Commission.

See the context on non-civil-service departments.

Reflects the NJCSC Appendix A roster as of 2026-07-04. Context only, not legal advice.

In brief

Mountainside Police Department in Union County named 6 officers in internal affairs cases in 2025 and reported 7 investigations, a rate of 116.7 per 100 officers, under the Union County median of 137 and the 125.9 municipal median. The comparison cuts both ways, since departments that record more of their complaints post higher rates than those that record fewer. None of the 7 investigations detailed for 2025 reported sustained complaints. Other Departmental Rule Violation was the leading allegation category, ahead of Neglect of Duty and Conduct Unbecoming/Discredit To The Agency.

Two major discipline records appear across the 2020-2025 releases, from 2021 and 2024. Mountainside received an F on the report card, at the 90th percentile among 171 peers in the 15-29 officers group, a medium-confidence grade.

Military surplus equipment (1033 program)

In brief

Written by this site from the figures below.

Nine recorded line items appear for Mountainside Police Department, shipped between 2004 and 2015 and recorded at $20,982 in original Department of Defense acquisition cost rather than current or market value. All of them fall in categories this site classes as tactical. Night vision equipment, emitted and reflected radiation accounts for $15,794 of the total, seven items of Guns, through 30mm for $3,493, and Optical sighting and ranging equipment for $1,695. The data describes transfers received over that period rather than a current inventory, and non-controlled items may be disposed of after one year. Receiving surplus equipment is not misconduct, and this federal record is separate in origin from the Attorney General discipline data on this page.

AnalysisMilitarization Index: computed by this site, not an official statistic.

Mountainside Police Department received $912 of tactical 1033 equipment value per sworn officer (original cost, divided by its latest FBI-reported staffing): the 78th percentile among municipal police agencies of similar size (15-29 officers, n=167).

Investigations per 100 officers named in that year's IA investigations (the Attorney General's own "Number of Officers" field, a distinct-officer count drawn from the IA case data itself, not a department headcount). A higher number is ambiguous on its own: it can reflect more misconduct, or a stronger internal reporting culture. Medians are computed within the same agency type only.

AnalysisA second, independent rate using FBI-reported staffing instead.

7 investigations reported for 2025[1] ÷ 23 sworn officers the department reported to the FBI for 2025[22] = 30.4 per 100 FBI-reported sworn officers. This is a genuinely different denominator from the rate above, not a correction of it; the two should not be added or averaged together. See the methodology for why these two officer counts diverge.

What this grade can and can't tell you

  • The underlying data is self-reported by agencies, one yearly snapshot at a time.
  • Allegations are not findings; many complaints end unfounded, exonerated, or not sustained.
  • There is no arrest or call-volume denominator in this data, so nothing here is a per-capita misconduct rate. A genuinely independent staffing-based rate, sourced from the FBI rather than this grade's own data, appears above when available. It is a different measurement, not a more accurate version of the grade.
  • A higher internal affairs volume is ambiguous: it can indicate more misconduct, or a more robust oversight and reporting culture. The grade weighs it anyway, because volume is what the record offers; that choice is published, not hidden.
  • The grade is one lens. The records it reads are on this page above.

Public records requests

Records requests about this department filed through OPRAmachine, an independent site that files Open Public Records Act requests in public and publishes the responses.[4] This is a third-party, user-generated source, separate in origin from the Attorney General records elsewhere on this page.

Current as of 12 July 2026. These figures are a point-in-time snapshot and do not update: requests filed to OPRAmachine after that date do not appear here. For live activity, see this body on OPRAmachine.

This department has no separate listing on OPRAmachine. Records requests for it are handled through Mountainside Borough, the municipal records custodian, which also fields requests about permits, property, and code enforcement. Only the 16 requests whose subject line indicates it concerns the police department are counted below. The other 75 filed to Mountainside Borough are about something else and are not shown.

What this section can and can't tell you

  • A request is not a finding. Every entry records what a member of the public asked for. None of it establishes that an agency did anything, and none of it is an allegation this site is making.
  • Statuses come from the requester, not the agency. On OPRAmachine the person who filed the request classifies the response they got, so “successful” means they said they got what they asked for. It is not the agency's word and not an adjudication.
  • Request volume is not a measure of misconduct. A long list usually reflects public interest, local journalism, or one determined requester. A short list usually means few people have asked.
  • This covers OPRAmachine only. Most OPRA requests in New Jersey are filed directly with agencies and never appear here, so this is a floor, not a total.
  • It is frozen at 12 July 2026. The figures come from a snapshot of OPRAmachine taken on that date and nothing refreshes them, so anything filed since is missing. Treat every number here as a lower bound that is only getting further out of date.
  • The count is an undercount, by design. Requests to Mountainside Borough are sorted by subject line, because that custodian also handles permits, property, and code enforcement. A request that is genuinely about the police but carries a vague subject line, and many do read only “OPRA Request,” is not counted here. The sorting is this site's own reading of the request titles, not a fact from the source, and it is deliberately cautious: it would rather miss a police request than show you somebody's building permit.

The match between this OPRAmachine body and this department is this site's inference, not a certified mapping. If it is wrong, we will remove it: corrections.

Questions and answers

What is a summary of Mountainside Police Department's internal affairs and discipline record?

Mountainside Police Department in Union County named 6 officers in internal affairs cases in 2025 and reported 7 investigations, a rate of 116.7 per 100 officers, under the Union County median of 137 and the 125.9 municipal median. The comparison cuts both ways, since departments that record more of their complaints post higher rates than those that record fewer. None of the 7 investigations detailed for 2025 reported sustained complaints. Other Departmental Rule Violation was the leading allegation category, ahead of Neglect of Duty and Conduct Unbecoming/Discredit To The Agency. Two major discipline records appear across the 2020-2025 releases, from 2021 and 2024. Mountainside received an F on the report card, at the 90th percentile among 171 peers in the 15-29 officers group, a medium-confidence grade.

How many internal affairs investigations did Mountainside Police Department report in 2025?

Mountainside Police Department reported 7 internal affairs investigations in 2025, according to New Jersey Attorney General data. 6 distinct officers were named in that year's IA investigations.

How many major discipline records does Mountainside Police Department have?

Mountainside Police Department has 2 major discipline records in the Attorney General's 2020-2025 releases, of which 0 were terminations. These are final, adjudicated actions, not allegations.

How many officers does Mountainside Police Department have?

Mountainside Police Department reported 23 full-time sworn officers to the FBI's Law Enforcement Employees census for 2025, 8.7% of them female. That is 3.16 sworn officers per 1,000 residents. This is a different measurement from the "officers named in IA cases" figure elsewhere on this page, which counts distinct officers in that year's internal affairs investigations, not total staffing.

What military surplus equipment has Mountainside Police Department received through the 1033 program?

Mountainside Police Department received 9 recorded line items of surplus military equipment through the Defense Department's 1033 program between 2004 and 2015, with a total recorded value of $20,982 (original DoD acquisition cost, not current or market value). The largest category by recorded value was: Night vision equipment, emitted and reflected radiation. Transfers are as recorded by the Defense Logistics Agency as of 2026-06-30; equipment acquired through the program is not necessarily still held.

What is the total recorded value of the 1033 equipment Mountainside Police Department received?

The surplus equipment recorded for Mountainside Police Department under the 1033 program totals $20,982 in original DoD acquisition cost, of which $20,982 is in categories this site classes as tactical (9 of 9 line items). These are original-cost figures at the time of transfer, not current or market value.

What does Mountainside Police Department pay its officers compared with local school staff?

The median pensionable salary for the 22 active Mountainside Police Department officers in the NJ Treasury pension file is $143,278. The median for the 85 TPAF-enrolled staff at MOUNTAINSIDE BORO BD OF ED is $72,099, a ratio of 1.99x. Against the Union County school-staff median the ratio is 1.60x. These are pensionable base salaries: they exclude overtime, stipends, longevity and leave payouts for both groups, and a school contract year and a police work year are different lengths. TPAF covers certificated school staff, not only classroom teachers.
