BERGEN COUNTY EXECUTIVE

James J. Tedesco, III

James J. Tedesco, III was sworn in to begin his second term as the Bergen County Executive on January 1, 2019. Since taking office in 2015, County Executive Tedesco has focused on improving quality of life and services for county residents while also creating greater efficiency and effectiveness throughout county government. Tedesco and his administration have prioritized creating responsible oversight and a secure future for the County's hospital, Bergen New Bridge Medical Center (New Jersey's largest hospital and the fourth largest publically-owned hospital in the nation), increasing services and support for U.S. military veterans and their families, identifying opportunities to share services with and between Bergen County municipalities, and preserving and enhancing the nearly 10,000 acres of open space and recreational facilities within our Bergen County Parks System.

Following the example set by his father, Tedesco has always been committed to public service. In 1976, Tedesco joined the Paramus Fire Department, where he has been a volunteer firefighter for more than 40 years and elected Fire Chief twice. Starting in 2000, Tedesco served on the Paramus Borough Council and then as Mayor of his hometown for two terms. His service also extended to holding several community volunteer leadership positions with emergency management, youth sports, and non-profits.
