"Leaving Morristown, the county seat, and going on the road gives the freeholders the chance to meet face-to-face and to exchange ideas with local officials and to seek their input on the various issues that affect their towns,” Freeholder Director William Chegwidden said in the statement.

The freeholders, who have visited Mine Hill, Riverdale and Hanover already this year and will hold a November meeting in Wharton, feel the tour makes it more convenient for residents of those towns and nearby communities to have their voice heard.
