and the newest Player….

According to the Lodi Board of Education minutes of the May 27, 2015 meeting, Dominic Miller was sworn in as a trustee.

Good choice, now if President Joseph Licata andTrustees Michael Nardino and Jamie Edward Ciofalo can NOT vote, Miller can….

As we all know who Licata is, and that Nardino is the Director of the Lodi Boy's & Girls Club, Ciafalo is employed by the Lodi Board of Education and runs "several businesses" out of the Lodi Boys & Girls Club.

Miller's dad Mike was employed by Nardino at the Lodi Boy's & Girl's Club, and was the Treasurer of the hidden Lodi Drug Alliance. Dominic Miller has recently been added to the members of Lodi Cares Org., a non-profit group formed by Licata and Ciofalo.

http://www.lodicares.org/about-us.html

Miller is a Police Officer with the Lodi Police Department since 2008 and also became part of the Traffic Division, you know, Monday thru Friday 7AM to 3PM with Holidays off. (plenty of officers ahead of him who would have qualified for the position, and would love to have weekends & holidays off) Miller's brother-in-law R. Rodrigues is also a Police Officer.

Of course the local PBA has now also joined the Lodi Cares effort.

Family Ties

Trying to figure out who is related to whom in the Borough of Lodi is a daunting task, and a new person entering the Lodi politics game would have absolutely no clue. The re-posting of an obituary is done in an effort to illustrate the "Family Connections", and most certainly, not out of disrespect.

Glenn Focarino is the Principal of our Title 1 school, Hilltop.

This is to make a point about Lodi, not out of disrespect.

 

So, here we have the CARAFA, NARDINO, CAPIZZI, FOCARINO, MACTAGGART FAMILES,
most are employed by the LODI BOARD of Education.

and the fiefdom of the  "Good Ole Joe Capizzi Boys" continues...
