HACKENSACK — The New Jersey Civil Service Commission has approved a layoff plan that will allow the city to close its Human Services Department.

The city will not operate the welfare office after Jan. 31, but Hackensack clients can continue to visit the City Hall office, because it will be run by county employees during a transitional period, said interim City Manager Anthony Rottino. The Bergen County Board of Social Services will take over operations, and cases will be shifted to the main offices in Rochelle Park at a later, unknown date.

HACKENSACK – In a move that officially abolishes the city’s Department of Human Services, the governing body unanimously approved a resolution which eliminated the department effective Jan. 31.

After months of discussion, officials approved to dissolve the city’s welfare office in November 2010 – opting to use county services — in a move that will save the municipality $400,000 annually.
