ReplyHey, let's spend a bunch of money so kids can " see cops in a different light" and " have pleasant interactions".
Seriously?? Talk about being taken for a ride!

ReplyWhy shouldn't a Wayne resident know about theft in their county voting office???
I think it's more strange that anyone would object to the story. It's news, and it's local.

ReplySo basically Mr. Pignatello is a professional in this area. He has the credentials and given his position he has probably aced an interview or two in his career.
Individuals aside, is this kind of thinking really serving the best interests of the town? It's like having an all volunteer legal board in Wayne and choosing a real estate agent instead of a lawyer. It's like having a volunteer Medical Board and instead of picking a doctor, you pick the guy who has a pizzeria.Seems very irresponsible. I am going to have to pay more attention to the candidates and the elections, who makes up the board and what they are trying to accomplish.

ReplyWhen I read the comments in the last post about this and saw it had to be closed, I went and googled these people to see if I could figure out what the hubbub was about. The only one who had anything that qualified him for this kind of position (actually other people and their accomplishments were not even googlable, which is weird) was the guy who is a VP of a college in NYC who was a Mayor of Verona and I figured there was no way he wouldn't be picked. Which is logical since this is a position where you deal with people's taxes and the town's money. It's nice that this guy is a soccer coach, but frankly that is very different than deciding how to manage a budget, which takes other skills than working with kids.
This isn't about if you own a business in Wayne or about working with kids. It's about working with taxpayer money and while I understand that politics are politics, this appointment seems soooo...odd.

ReplyWhen Wayne is restored it will be early next week. OVER 2 WEEKS? HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN IN AMERICA? I swear there should be a way to sue these power companies. We are HOSTAGES.

ReplyThe jcpl spreadsheet says 501 Wayne restorations today, Nov 5th- yet the outage report updated every 15 minutes has not changed since this morning. And slated for tomorrow, Nov 6th? ZERO.
This is going to take until this weekend, with people living in frigid conditions. How is this happening????

Speaking of development, is there any news about the A&P on 23? At this point would love to see ANY grocery store there.
